Package: xfce4
Version: 4.8.0.3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
apt-get dist-upgrade from xfce4 4.8 to xfce4 4.10 fails with
xfce4/xfce4-session/xfce4-appfinder being held back by inability to upgrade
xfce4-utils, which is not present in 4.10. This is curious as xfce4 4.10
Depends on libxfce4ui-utils which Replaces xfce4-utils. It seems that apt is
unable to resolve the conflict despite being provided with a full and
consistent set of Depends, Replaces, and Breaks (perhaps dependencies are too
deep, or perhaps apt-get needs a flag --try-harder?). Or perhaps apt's
heuristics sometime just get it wrong?
A plain "apt-get dist-upgrade" results in:
The following packages have been kept back:
xfce4 xfce4-appfinder xfce4-session
The simple but unobvious workaround is to remove or purge xfce4-utils, which
results in an immediate upgrade:
apt-get purge xfce4-utils
This bug might be related to #709522.
To aid debugging, I include below (1) the package list before the dist-upgrade,
(2) the verbose debugging output of (simulated) dist-upgrade, and (3) the
verbose debugging output of the successful (simulated) workaround.
Kind regards,
Ben.
