up2date failed dependencies

Sometime when you run the up2date command to update your server, it will fail due to dependencies. When this happens, it'll tell you what packages are needed, and by what packages. A sample error message may look like this:

error: failed dependencies:
      libcap.so.1.10  is needed by vsftpd

To fix the dependency issues, you need to run up2date with the, you guessed it, --solvedeps flag which as the name suggests solves the dependencies. You can run it like so:

up2date  --solvedeps=<module1,module2,...>

where module1, module2, etc are the modules that need to have their dependencies solved.
