Alternative way If you already upgraded bonobo packages, add the followings to /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://snapshot.apt.jp/archive pool bonobo-activation libbonoboui Then run as follows: # apt-get update # apt-get install bonobo-activation=1.0.3-2.2 \ libbonobo-activation4=1.0.3-2.2 \ libbonoboui2-0=2.0.3-1 \ libbonoboui2-common=2.0.3-1 So, you'll get safe bonobo packages again. Of course you should install -dev packages as well if needed. Note the version number can be found by using apt-cache show <package> after you did apt-get update. Once you installed, you can remove above apt line from /etc/apt/sources.list. if you get safe bonobo packages back or if you didn't yet ugpraded bonobo packages, just hold it # echo bonobo-activation hold | dpkg --set-selections # echo libbonobo-activation4 hold | dpkg --set-selections # echo libbonobo-activation-dev hold | dpkg --set-selections # echo libbonoboui2-0 hold | dpkg --set-selections # echo libbonoboui2-common hold | dpkg --set-selections # echo libbonoboui2-dev hold | dpkg --set-selections So, apt-get won't upgrade these packages until you reset hold. Regards, Fumitoshi UKAI PS. I've found some problem in snapshot.debian.net Packages.gz files. There miss Size: field, so apt-get failed to install packages as above ways because apt-get complained size mismatch. I've fixed this at least bonobo-activation and libbonoboui, so this should work. I'm fixing Packages.gz files for another packages. (it needs much time because we have so many packages...)
