Are there any lines starting with "WARNING:" ? Were all the other packages
listed in the line containing tivsm properly installed?

As this is a "local" package, you won't find a "Get:...." line for it, but you
should find an "Unpacking ..." line. Still, it is possible that a bunch of
packages has not been installed, because one of them was missing from the
archive. Then you would find lines like 

E: Broken packages
ERROR: 25600 25600

Please check those for such lines.

Thanks,
Michael
