Hi Chris, I just did an apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get install kde on the Sid that had the error installing kde (the start of this thread), and it still has the same unmet dependency problems. So: I read about dinstall here dinstall can now announce packages & close bugs for you http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/1999/debian-devel-199901/msg02650.html Does your statement "This should be fixed in the dinstall today." explicitly imply that that means when you (ccheney) do the dinstall that the packages relevant to the fix get uploaded to the debian package pool, and thus become available to Sid systems after they run apt-get update? Or, does your statement merely mean that the fix is installed in your own development system, and that for it to be available to the rest of us it still must be uploaded by you in a next step? So: did you do the dinstall? Is the fix now in the Sid package pool (and hence should have been available to my system when I did apt-get update)? If so - any idea why my Sid is still having this problem? If not - when (in # of days) do you think Sid systems will be able to install metapackage "kde"?
