The problem is that you are requesting a weird situation, and it is confusing apt. The buildd responds to "Build-depends: ocaml, camlp4" by running "apt-get install ocaml camlp4", which apt decides is impossible since ocaml Conflicts: camlp4. "apt-get build-dep" handles this situation correctly, though. But as far as I know, the buildd's don't use that feature yet. -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
