I installed pubuntu and it is amazing to be able to run it under Windows. Mainly want to use it for media such as ipod. I used gtkpod in the past but don't have a Linux application. Therefore installed pubuntu and tried to install gtkpod, but keep getting error messages. Whenever I try to install a package I get this:

Also tried to install libc6-dev, but then get the same message.
I would be really happy if there was a solution.
Many thanx!

Hi All!
Gtkpod runs very well with pubuntu. Just install it as shown in link below:

Fantastic!
