Package: tzdata-2015a-0wheezy1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Normal aptitude update / upgrade process. Package: tzdata-2014j0wheezy1
marked for update to 2015a ...
Aptitude reports dependency problems suggests removing:
1) ca-certivicates-java
2) icedtea-7-plugin
3) icedtea-netx
4) openjdk-7-jre-headless
5) openjdk-7-jre
6) tzdata-java
Utimately, it appears that tzdata-java insists that it requires version
tzdata-2014j-0wheezy1, and does not recognize 2015a as acceptable.
Ditto for openjdk-6 install blob, et. al.
Very likely to confuse the hey out of less experienced users, or break
systems that trust debian with an unsupervised upgrade - a linux kiosk, for
example.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Place hold on tzdata-2014j...
* What was the outcome of this action?
OK for now but not able to upgrade tzdata without losing openjava.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Successful upgrade of tzdata.
