Package: svn-workbench Version: 1.6.8-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= I tried to upgrade to svn-workbench 1.6.8-1 and got this error: pkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of svn-workbench: svn-workbench depends on python:any (>= 2.6.6-7~).
This was confusing because the installed python2.6 is above this version already: ii python2.6 2.6.8-1.1 i386 ii python2.6-dev 2.6.8-1.1 i386 ii python2.6-doc 2.6.8-1.1 all ii python2.6-examples 2.6.8-1.1 all ii python2.6-minimal 2.6.8-1.1 i386 This happens even if I purge svn-workbench and install it by itself: The following NEW packages will be installed: svn-workbench 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1541 not upgraded.

Perhaps adding a dependency on python:any version 2.7.5-5 or greater would avoid this installation problem? thanks, --jack =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages svn-workbench depends on: ii python-svn 1.7.8-0.1 ii python-wxgtk2.8 2.8.12.1-7 pn python:any <none> svn-workbench recommends no packages. svn-workbench suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
