I am trying to install plowshare, https://plowshare.googlecode.com/fil...1542-1_all.deb, on my nokia 900.
But i am getting the following errors:
Selecting previously deselected package plowshare.
(Reading database ... 46538 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking plowshare (from .../plowshare_1~svn1542-1_all.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of plowshare:
plowshare depends on bash (>= 3.2); however:
Package bash is not installed.
plowshare depends on curl; however:
Package curl is not installed.
plowshare depends on perlmagick; however:
Package perlmagick is not installed.
dpkg: error processing plowshare (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
plowshare

I tried to resolve errors using: sudo apt-get -f install, but some dependencies like bash are still not resolved.
Has anybody been able to install it.

You're installing a deb so it won't resolve dependencies for you.

you'll need to install the ones listed.

so

apt-get install bash curl perlmagick

You need to do this as root so
first "sudo su" and then "apt-get ..."
or "sudo apt-get ..."
If there are error that the pkgs can't be downloaded enable extras-tersing and if still not working extras-devel. disable them after install or you'll play with fire
