In my local repository, instead of pulling in the dependencies for the latest package, multistrap kind of goes through all the versions of available package and throws out an error saying the dependencies were not met.
This is what I'm getting. I have a single meta package which pulls in all the dependencies it needs and for example libdbixx0-dev is not in the dependency tree for my meta package log: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libdbixx0-dev: Depends: libdbixx0 (= 0.0.3kal1-1.20100418.030553.0bef81f) but 0.0.3kal1-1.20100628.124113.d9904bd is to be installed libksettings1-dev: Depends: libksettings1 (= 0.0.0-1.20100418.030847.b729848) but 0.0.0-1.20100430.031002.4173846 is to be installed xlibs: Conflicts: xorg-conf xorg-startup: Conflicts: wmakerstartup-conf E: Broken packages apt download failed.
