Package: exfatprogs

Dear Maintainer (and [email protected] for udisks2),

the latest push of exfatprogs to testing/forky (bug 1140899), added "Breaks: udisks2 
(<< 2.11.1-2)", which causes the package to either be held back or break gnome (via 
uninstalling gnome-session and a few other packages).

The package being held back is the desired outcome.

gnome-disk-utility depends on udisks2; the version of udisks2 available in 
testing is 2.11.1-1, and in sid 2.11.1-2.
Attempting to upgrade exfatprogs causes the removal of

The following packages will be REMOVED:
   gnome gnome-core gnome-disk-utility gnome-session gnome-sushi gvfs 
gvfs-backends gvfs-daemons gvfs-fuse libblockdev3 nautilus nemo nemo-fileroller 
udisks2 xdg-desktop-portal-gnome

Even on a FrankenDebian (which mine kind of is) this can't really be worked around, as 
the "strictly earlier" rule means not even exfatprogs/sid will be accepted.

I see that in 1140899 there is a discussion about issues with udisks2, so I 
don't really know if/when this can be fixed.

I believe this to be severity: important because it makes the upgrade of 
exfatprogs pretty much impossible (causing gnome-session to be uninstalled) but 
not higher, as apt holds it back (at least on my system).

Please let me know if I can provide any more information.


I don't see a bug here.
Just wait until fixed versions of udisks2 and libblockdev have entered testing and do not blindly run "apt dist-upgrade/full-upgrade", especially when it wants to remove half of your desktop environment.

Regards,
Michael
