Hello, Sorry for coming back to a thread we previously discussed, but the situation for the libumfpack4 library in Debian testing seems to have come to a halt. I still cannot install dolfin from the repositories and trying to force a different version of libumfpack4 may give rise to other problems (Scipy and God knows what else depend upon this library). I emailed the maintainer asking whether the situation is going to change and if the newest version is going to be uploaded into testing soon, but I have had no reply yet. Although this is not really the job/responsibility of anyone on the list, are there any suggestions? I would like to use precompiled binaries instead of building from source and using CVS, but I cannot switch to Ubuntu simply for this (even if it was only because I cannot afford the time to re-install everything on my work laptop for a software I want to learn how to use for "personal development"). Many thanks
Lorenzo $ sudo apt-get install libdolfin Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libdolfin: Depends: libumfpack4 (>= 4.4-3) E: Broken packages On 25/09/2007, LUK ShunTim <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Lorenzo Isella wrote: > > Ok, so it should all boil down to waiting a few days (hopefully). > > I think I will follow this waiting policy, hoping that in the > > meanwhile the python 2.4 vs 2.5 issue gets sorted out. > > I understand this must be a pain for the maintainers of dolfin! > > Cheers > > > > Lorenzo > > _______________________________________________ DOLFIN-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.fenics.org/mailman/listinfo/dolfin-dev
