So I downloaded the non-free broadcom driver(b44) for my debian install, however when I try to make it I get the following error:
make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/build SUBDIRS=/home/scroty/workplace/b44-1.00g modules
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [default] Error 2
So I looked up my errors, and some other guy here had the same thing, and he fixed it by installing the kernel headers. So I try to do the same, and this is what happens:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.32-5-amd64
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-headers-2.6.32-5-amd64 : Depends: gcc-4.3 but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
When I try to install gcc-4.3 it's the same thing, except with several more dependencies(some of which I know I have). When I run:
dpkg --get-selections | grep gcc
it returns:
gcc
gcc-4.3-base
gcc-4.4-base
gcc-4.7
gcc-4.7-base
libgcc1
So is it bad that I have several different versions of the same package? Is there any reason I shouldn't just delete gcc-4.3 and gcc-4.4 since I have 4.7? I'm having a bit of trouble completely understanding the whole package system.
EDIT: Does the '32' in 'linux-headers-2.6.32-5-amd64' mean that it's meant for 32bit machiens? Because I'm running 64bit, however I figured 32bit apps would still run.

The .32 is just part of the version number, it doesn't have anything to do with 32 or 64 bit.

Ah alright, thanks for the info. Do you have any idea what might be going on here? Apt-get just doesn't want to work anymore. Doesn't apt-get automatically find and include dependencies?

Try runningapt-get update, then try the originalapt-get installcommand again. Dependencies should be installed automatically, if they're not that suggests that your package lists might be out of date.

By package lists, I meant the ones that get updated by runningapt-get update, too large to post and unlikely to be helpful. The list of sources might be informative if there's anything unusual in them.
