gnome-settings-daemon 3.30.1.2-1ubuntu3 built after being retried with this mutter, and it's now in cosmic-updates.

This in itself is correct, but when the arch:all gnome-settings-daemon-schemas is published before an arch-only build is picked up, we have skew that results in this failure. g-s-d-schemas 3.30.1.2-1ubuntu3 is available, but g-s-d 3.30.1.2-1ubuntu2, the strict dependency means it is uninstallable. Presumably we'd gotten lucky up until now and never had a newer g-s-d-schemas published before all other arches at least started building. [ Fix ] Cut the arch:any part of the circular dependency. We make mutter Depend on gnome-settings-daemon-schemas instead, since it only needs the schemas and not running daemons. We still have a circular BD/D chain from g-s-d to itself, but now it looks like: src:g-s-d - (BD) -> mutter - (D) -> g-s-d-schemas ...importantly there are no strict version requirements any more, so this kind of skew isn't a problem. If mutter ever changes to have "Depends: gnome-settings-daemon-schemas (>= some-version)", this should also work - since the arch:all gnome-settings-daemon-schemas will be installable everywhere. [ QA ] I tested this in a bileto silo and it worked: https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa- service/+archive/ubuntu/3567/+packages Once the fixed mutter is published, we should be able to retry the g-s-d builds. [ Regression potential ] mutter will no longer Depend on gnome-settings-daemon itself (the daemons). This might expose missing g-s-d dependencies from other packages. These could only be out-of-archive packages though: laney@raleigh> reverse-depends -r cosmic mutter Reverse-Depends =============== * gnome-shell * vanilla-gnome-desktop and both of these depend on gnome-settings-daemon already.
