Thanks for the reply. I made a mistake then, I only did: $ apt-cache rdepends xlibs-data xlibs-data Reverse Depends: xkb-data-legacy xkb-data-legacy xcursor-themes xcursor-themes xbitmaps xbitmaps libx11-6 $ apt-cache rdepends xlibs-static-dev xlibs-static-dev Reverse Depends: x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev x11proto-xf86misc-dev x11proto-xf86misc-dev x11proto-xf86dga-dev x11proto-xf86dga-dev x11proto-xf86bigfont-dev x11proto-xf86bigfont-dev x11proto-bigreqs-dev x11proto-bigreqs-dev libxfont-dev But all those packages only conflict or replace xlibs-data or xlibs-static-dev. So now I did: $ grep-dctrl -F Build-Depends -s Package "xlibs-data" /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.cz.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_source_Sources Package: enlightenment Package: pixmap Package: xtel $ grep-dctrl -F Build-Depends -s Package "xlibs-static-dev" /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.cz.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_source_Sources Package: enlightenment Package: gem Package: gl-117 Package: gvidm Package: wine For example for enlightement, you reported this a year ago already: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=419023 with no response at all. Ok, let's leave this bug open until the above packages are fixed and then remove it from archive. Ondrej -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
