-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Package: apt Version: 1.0.6 Severity: normal
I have the both packages, gnuplot-nox and gnuplot-x11, installed with version 4.6.5-6. The new version of that packages are 4.6.5-10 but conflicting each other. Now comes the problem. With any "apt-get dist-upgrade", apt is installing the packages aglfn, gnuplot-data und gnuplot-tex (as they are in the dependencies of the packages version 4.6.5-10 but not as dependencies of version 4.6.5-6. The funny think is that I get informed with the same command that installs that packages, that they are going to get deinstalled with a autoremove as they are not needed. That game comes up now with every upgrade cycle (daily). I see two or tree solutions for this problem: - - Just take only the installable packages in consideration when resolving dependencies. That would not update gnuplot-nox and/or gnuplot-x11 but would not install and deinstall the dependencies of newer package every time. - - Pick one out of the conflicting packages to keep and upgrade and deinstall the other. That would be not the best solution but at least allows to update them. The user can choose afterwards to install the other package. (Maybe taking the one that has the least dependencies.) - - Inform the user clearly _why_ they are not updated. At the moment it only shows that they have been kept back but not for what reason. With this packages it is just annoying and maybe is not good for SSDs as they would wear out. But for other packages that problem can get really problematic so I think it should be solved. This problem will comes into sever state when gnuplot (in this case) with that version will be stable in future. It will end with systems not fully upgraded to newer stable releases. - -- Package-specific info: - -- apt-config dump -- APT ""; APT::Architecture "amd64"; APT::Build-Essential ""; APT::Build-Essential:: "build-essential"; APT::Install-Recommends "false"; APT::Install-Suggests "0"; APT::NeverAutoRemove ""; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^firmware-linux.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-firmware$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-headers-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-headers-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-extra-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-extra-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-signed-image-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-signed-image-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-image-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-image-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-headers-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-headers-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach-image-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach-image-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-modules-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-modules-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-kernel-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-kernel-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-backports-modules-.*-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-backports-modules-.*-3\.15\.6$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-tools-3\.13\.11$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-tools-3\.15\.6$"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages ""; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-headers"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-image-extra"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-signed-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "kfreebsd-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "kfreebsd-headers"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "gnumach-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: ".*-modules"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: ".*-kernel"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-backports-modules-.*"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-tools"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections ""; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "restricted/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "universe/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "multiverse/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "oldlibs"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "restricted/oldlibs"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "universe/oldlibs"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "multiverse/oldlibs"; APT::Periodic ""; APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1"; APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "0"; APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval "1"; APT::Periodic::MaxAge "30"; APT::Periodic::MinAge "2"; APT::Periodic::MaxSize "500"; APT::Update ""; APT::Update::Pre-Invoke ""; APT::Update::Pre-Invoke:: "if [ -x /usr/bin/daptup ]; then /usr/bin/daptup --pre; fi"; APT::Update::Post-Invoke ""; APT::Update::Post-Invoke:: "if [ -x /usr/bin/daptup ]; then /usr/bin/daptup --post; fi"; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success ""; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success:: "test -x /usr/bin/apt-show-versions || exit 0 ; apt-show-versions -i"; APT::Get ""; APT::Get::Show-Upgraded "true"; APT::Get::Show-Versions "true"; APT::Get::Purge "true"; APT::Cache ""; APT::Cache::AllVersions "false"; APT::Acquire ""; APT::Acquire::Description "de"; APT::Architectures ""; APT::Architectures:: "amd64"; APT::Architectures:: "i386"; APT::Compressor ""; APT::Compressor::.
