Which app, what repositories do you have enabled, and what packages are reported as missing?

If you have extras-devel enabled, then some of the packages/libraries require PR1.2, so will give errors about missing packages.

There shouldn't be any problem with that app - all those python packages are available in extras (and there's no newer versions in extras-devel), so all should install okay. You can try installing them manually - make sure you have rootsh installed, then launch X Terminal and run:
Code:
root
apt-get install python-notify python-numeric python-cairo
apt-get clean

Ah - one of those must have a PR1.2 dependent version in extras-devel. Try disabling extras-devel temporarily, closing App Manager and rerunning the apt-get command in X Terminal. That should then succeed in installing the packages, after which you can re-enable extras-devel and install advancedcaching through App Manager.

i did.but the same problem in the terminal with some other dependency .is there any way to remove old packages and install packages that i need now?

this is the response of terminal:
Code:
apt-get install python-notify python-numeric python-cairo
enter
reading package lists ...done
building dependency tree
reading state information....done
you might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these"
the following packages have unmet dependencies:
qstardic : depend: libc6 (>=2.7-1) but 2.5.1-leglibc20+0m5 is to be installed
                depends: libgcc1 (>=1:4.3) but 1:4.2.1-4maemo9+0m5 is to be installed
                 depends: libqtqore4 (>=4.4.0) but it is not instable
                depends : libstdc++6 (>= 4.3) but 4.2.1-4maemo9+0m5 is to be installed

will these packages take space on root?

If you wonder whether some package takes up space on root, rather than asking, try the following:

Find out how much rootfs you have.
Install the package.
Find out how much rootfs you have.

Subtract the second number from the first.
That will tell you exactly how much rootfs installing the package cost.
