Package: udev
Version: 0.056-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I am trying to upgrade my kernel from 2.6.11 to 2.6.12 when doing so it reports
an error about hal in need of udev >= 0.063 . So I try to upgrade udev which
in turn need a kernel >= 2.6.12 .
Here are the commands:
# apt-get upgrade linux-image-2.6-k7
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
hal: Depends: udev (>= 0.063) but 0.056-3 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
#
# apt-get upgrade udev

E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
#
Trying to use force the install is not helpfull :-/
Would it be possible to make the udev package aware that a kernel 2.6.12
is being installed ? Then one can use:
# apt-get upgrade linux-image-2.6-k7 udev

It is not a bug because this is the only way this can be implemented,
and users will have to deal with it (by reading the etch release notes).
As a debian developer you are supposed to know why dependencies on
kernel versions cannot be expressed as package dependencies.
If you are still unsure then please spend some time to read the dozen of
similar closed bugs.
