Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.8-1 Severity: normal Very recently, the following problem occurred on my box which is running Debian testing:
aptitude full-upgrade wanted to install texlive-fonts-extra (and many MBs of packages that texlive-fonts-extra depends upon), though this was not necessary. I believe that this happened because the new version of texpower in the package repository depended on texlive-fonts-extra. However, the currently installed version did not and texpower was going to be removed. To work around this problem, one can remove texpower manually before the dist-upgrade. The thread http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.user/438192/focus=438240 deals with this bug. Please find below the output of "apt-cache show texpower" and "aptitude -D full-upgrade" at the time when the problem occurred. # apt-cache show texpower Package: texpower Source: texlive-extra Version: 2012.20120611-1 Installed-Size: 122 Maintainer: Debian TeX Maintainers <[email protected]> Architecture: all Depends: texlive-latex-extra (>= 2011), texlive-fonts-extra (>= 2011), dpkg (>= 1.14.18), tex-common (>= 3) Description-en: TeX Live: transitional dummy package This is a transitional package for texpower to ensure proper upgrade to texlive-latex-extra.
