Just disable extras-devel and update it from extras-testing. It is something to do with the newer version of the package and was the same in PR1.1.1

There is already a thread on this so in future please search the forums before posting.

I'm getting this error when I write apt-get -f install. Anyone know what the problem is? I've tried the extras version. It tries to update it in app manager but it fails. Thanks!

Bah, shouldn't have fixed the upstart-job thing since it's broken on a higher level...
Edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/account-plugin-salut.postinst and comment out (add a # to the start of the line) this line

/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start

# /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start

A Maemo update fixed it in my case, if that helps. Dunno whether it's been rolled out to you guys yet.

[HeavyComponent]
