apt - broken packages - libg11-mesa-dri:i386

happy new year!



Not so for my PC :o)
While installing the IA32-libs my PC ran into a broken package problem.
( The system is ubuntu 12.10 - 64 bit and I want to compile 32bit targets.)




The console output is vague about this but I did get more information out of the GUI update-manager:this is the output:



"De afhankelijkheden van de volgende pakketten konden niet geïnstalleerd worden:



libgl1-mesa-dri:i386: Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) maar 1:4.7.2-2ubuntu1 is geïnstalleerd"



That's Dutch for: libgl1-mesa depends on libgcc1 1.4.1.1 but 1.4.7.2 is already installed on my system.



The real problem is the inability for apt-get to overcome this because I can't perform any updates, not by the console nor the GUI update manager. So My PC is basically stuck.




I tried ; apt-get install -f, remove, autoremove, update, upgrade. and so on.



Has someone an idea how to solve this?



many thanks
