I tgink he means that he can't... and that would be weird since I just updated the catalogues and I downloaded/installed something... Maybe there's something going on with the servers in your region?

and all are from extras-testing repos

I think some of the apps in extras-testing and extras-devel need dependencies from PR1.2 which isn't out yet.

In other words, you'll have to wait for PR1.2 or see if they get re-packaged for PR1.1.1.

i had the problem using the graphical packet manager.
Try apt-get, it worked for me.
If not, it wil at least tell you, what packages are missing.

Healthcheck doesnt need Pr1.2 - or rely on it at all....
Does it say what packages you are missing when you try to install it? :|
