Hi Johannes, 2012-03-13 12:47 Johannes Rohr:
Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.5-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, the following has happened: I purged the package libsocialweb-client2 using dpkg --purge In aptitude I re-installed the package Next time I start aptitude, the package is again set to "remove" thus breaking gnome-control-center and the rest of GNOME I set the package to "install" again, and everything looks fine. I quit aptitude Next time I launch aptitude, the package is again set to "remove", even though this breaks other packages Again, I can manually set the package to "install" and everything looks fine again - until next time I launch aptitude and so on. What is fscked up here?
Can you reproduce this with newer versions? I have never witnessed this behaviour. If you can still reproduce it (or remember the details), please tell us what the bottom half of the window says when you select the given package, the reason why aptitude shows the package as "broken" or wants to remove it, if there is any. Something like this (which happens in my system when trying to upgrade python3-uno, but it's set as "broken" because of interdependencies with libreoffice): ======================== Some dependencies of python3-uno are not satisfied: * python3-uno depends on libreoffice-core (= 1:5.0.1-1) ======================== You can also cycle the contents of that window with 'i', in one of them shows problematic (reverse) dependency relations related with the current package: ======================== ih libreoffice-calc Depends libreoffice-core (= 1:4.4.4-1) ihA libreoffice-core Depends libreoffice-common (> 1:4.4.4) ihA libreoffice-common Recommends python3-uno (>= 4.4.0~beta2) ======================== Cheers. -- Manuel A.
