Have you been patient enough? On some low-end CPUs it may take up to 15-20 minutes to solve dependencies!

Can one ever be patient enough :-)  But I had lunch, walked the dog
and left it sitting there for several hours. Took a few minutes to get
to 3/4 or the bar, and then it sat there for hours.

Something else I've tried when an OS or hardware misbehaves... remove ALL power - AC cord for a desktop, battery and DC adapter for a laptop. Let stand for 30 minutes. Rinse and repeat as necessary.
