2) What is the real difference between regular app manager and apt-get? I thought that the only difference was that with apt-get one could see all packages...

Can you post the exact error? Does it mention what packages are causing issues, or does it just ask you to run "apt-get -f install"?
I had a very similar problem - there was an updated version of hildon-initscripts in the tools repo that bust the mp- package when I did a dist-upgrade. I did an apt-cache policy hildon-initscripts to see the versions available, then rolled back using apt-get install hildon-initscripts=version.number I think. After that I was able to put back the mp- package (and simultaneously install pr1.2) with a normal apt-get install.

I was installing some apps from extras (no testing or devel enabled, tools also enabled) using apt-get instead of the app manager. Since it seemed go smoother (less load and less wait than app manager) I've decided try to install some updates too. So I did an apt-get dist-upgrade without paying too much attention.
After it was finished I realized mp-fremantle-pr was removed to solve some conflict. So, here are the questions:
1) How can I reinstall mp-fremantle-pr?
2) What is the real difference between regular app manager and apt-get? I thought that the only difference was that with apt-get one could see all packages...
3) If I can reinstall that package, sticking to apt-get upgrade (instead of dist-upgrade) will behave just as if I were to install upgrades using app manager?
Thanks.
PS. I would like to avoid another reflash, if possible.
