Package: udev
Version: 0.092-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system


Hi, ...

I tried a sarge to sid dist-upgrade on a powerpc/pegasos machine which was
running 2.6.8 kernel.

The upgrade failed with the udev needs kernel bigger than 2.6.12 message,
which was expected. But because of this, hal and a few other gnome stuff
didn't install, and apt refused to install them without udev being installed.

Now, i tried installing the linux-image package, but apt didn't let me do
this, because of the above installability problems, resulting in a broken
apt/dpkg database, and no easy way to go out of this without removing the
whole gnome packages, which is not desired.

I beleive i will be able to go out of this by some creative apt/dpkg
overriding, and maybe hand intervention, but we can't release etch this way.

Friendly,

Sven Luther

If your system is already in this state I think you just need to install
the kernel package (and its dependencies) using dpkg -i and then
continue as usual.

So far nobody managed to propose anything better, anyway feel free to
share your toughs in #349354 of which this bug is a duplicate.
