Package: lxsession-logout
Version: 0.5.6-2
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Justification: Policy 7.2
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
On upgrade to trixie, lxsession was uninstalled. This was caused by a bad
dependency:
lxsession-logout claims to depend on polkitd, which makes lxsession depend on
polkitd.
However, lxsession is working without polkitd (I used apt-holepunch to provide
an empty
polkitd); thus the dependency is not actually a dependency.
Diagnostic trying to install lxsession-logout:
Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
systemd is already the newest version (257.9-1~deb13u1).
systemd set to manually installed.
Solving dependencies...
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
lxsession-logout : Depends: polkitd
Recommends: consolekit but it is not installable or
logind or
default-logind

systemd is present to resolve a core KDE library dependency; it is completely
non-functional. elogind is not to be installed as it would start to actually
do something which turns out to mean cause trouble. I depend on elogind not
working.
