Apt-Get Whinging about an unmet dependency but I think it's just a badly configured package.

Folks I have the following problem
# when I go to do an apt-get upgrade it complains of a failed
dependency as follows
[root at amd root]# apt-get upgrade

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mplayer: Depends: mplayer-common (= 0.92) but 2:0.92-1 is installed
mplayer-common: Depends: mplayer (= 0.92)
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
# however I have the correct files installed but I think the packages
are broken....
[root at amd root]# rpm -qa | grep mplayer
mplayer-0.92-1
mplayer-common-0.92-1
mplayerplug-in-2.40-fc1
is there a way to tell apt-get to stop trying to resolve the dependency
that isn't broken it jsut thinks it is ???
