Renate, i can hardly tell what was going run when you were trying to install the dependency package. probably it's just apt failed to figure out a solution to fulfill the dependencies required by ceph-build-deps. one way is to try another resolver: mk-build-deps --tool="apt-get -y --no-install-recommends" debian/control apt-get install apt-cudf aspcud apt-get install \ --solver aspcud \ -o APT::Solver::Strict-Pinning=false \ -o APT::Solver::aspcud::Preferences="-new,-removed,-changed" \ ceph-build-deps*.deb another way is to simply ignore this failure and continue on. you can always install the missing dependencies manually using `apt-get` or `aptitude` as prompted by `cmake`.
