reassign 359158 gnustep-base-common thanks (Reassigning to gnustep-base-common, so that when libgnustep-base1.12 goes in, this bug will still be current.)
Hi Bill, On Sun, 26 Mar 2006 23:36:44 +0200, Bill Allombert said: > There is a circular dependency between libgnustep-base1.11 and > gnustep-base-common: > libgnustep-base1.11 :Depends: gnustep-base-common (>= 1.11.2-2) > gnustep-base-common :Depends: libgnustep-base1.11 (>= 1.11.2) Yes. As far as I know, GNUstep applications that link against libgnustep-base* require the gdnc program (at least), which is in gnustep-base-common. And of course gdnc is linked against libgnustep-base, so gnustep-base-common must depend on libgnustep-base*. I'm thinking of making libgnustep-base* Recommends: gnustep-base-common instead of Depends:. Does anyone know of any breakages that might happen if I do that? Since aptitude is the suggested installer for sarge onwards, and aptitude will pull in Recommends:, this should still ensure that gnustep-base-common gets installed. (AFAIK, gnustep-gui will need similar treatment.) Bill, do you have any other possible suggestions?
