I am trying to install wine on an old laptop of mine(running xubuntu 7.04), but it doesn't have any internet access on it.
i downloaded the .deb install package for wine and put that on the laptop via flash drive. but i still had a bit of dependencies to install for it to work.
I've pretty much installed all the dependencies except for two:
libgphoto2-port0
libgphoto2-2

the problem is, when i try to install one , it says it requires the other.
i.e., installing libgphoto2-2 says i need libgphoto2-port0 , and vice versa


please help , thanks in advance

Have you tried using --conflicts or --force options?

sudo dpkg -i --force libgphoto2-2
