Package: libvte4
Version: 1:0.12.2-5
Severity: important
It appears that libvte-common was upgraded in unstable but libvte4 has
not been upgraded despite having an exact version depends. This prevents
sun-java5-jdk (among other packages) from being installed with this error:
---------------------------------------------------------------
# apt-get install libvte4
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libvte4: Depends: libvte-common (= 1:0.12.2-5) but 1:0.16.6-1 is to be
installed

This is the version of libvte4 currently in Debian stable and testing.
Unstable has a different package, libvte9, in version 1:0.16.6-1.

FYI, sun-java5-jdk has no direct dependencies on libvte.

If libvte-common 1:0.16.6-1 is available but you have a libvte4 package
depending on libvte-common = 1:0.12.2-5, then it's probably because you
are mixing testing and unstable. Sorry, but that doesn't work in all
cases.
I'm closing this bug. Please either stick to testing where
sun-java5-jdk should be installable or dist-upgrade to unstable where
you should be able to install sun-java5-jdk too, but libvte9 instead of
libvte4.
Bye,
