Package: synaptic Version: 0.83+nmu1 Severity: normal There is a reproducible inconsistency while processing conflicts in synaptic. It appears to involve three packages, each of which conflicts with and replaces the other two.
Using packages emacs25, emacs25-nox, and emacs25-lucid, here are steps to reproduce: 0) Assuming package emacs25 and its dependencies are installed, start synaptic. 1) Right-click emacs25-lucid -> mark for installation. Confirm removal of emacs25 by clicking the 'Mark' button. [Status: Package emacs25 is marked for removal, emacs25-lucid is marked for installation.] 2) Right-click emacs25-nox -> mark for installation. [Status: Package emacs25 is marked for removal, emacs25-lucid is marked for installation.[ 3) Right-click emacs25-lucid -> mark for installation. The box informs about "additional required changes" to be installed: emacs25-nox. This is, of course, where the nonsense begins. Confirm by clicking the 'Mark' button. [Status: Package emacs25 is marked for removal, emacs25-lucid and emacs25-nox are both marked for *complete* removal.] -richy. -- Richard B. Kreckel <http://in.terlu.de/~kreckel/>
