You have a Breaks: dnsmasq (<< 2.62-3) which obviously isn't correct, as it does not apply to version 2.62-3 only previous ones (and you conflict with 2.62-3 as well). The best solution would be: Breaks: dnsmasq (<< 2.63-1) or (if you want to make backports easier): Breaks: dnsmasq (<< 2.63-1~) Same for the replaces. -- Julian Andres Klode - Debian Developer, Ubuntu Member See http://wiki.debian.org/JulianAndresKlode and http://jak-linux.org/. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
