I figured out how to fix this. The maintainer (Jeff W.) has given me
permission to update the package, so I've done it. A selfupdate will
bring you the new version once it hits the various servers--the
revision did change so an update-all should take care of things. Make
sure that the <space>fftw and <space>fftw-shlibs virtual packages are
gone.

Thanks. I'll hold off on updating until we get some more details.

Hi,
I attempted to update all of my packages today. When updating
scipy-py23, I was asked to specify a virtual dependency for fftw.
I specified the first option (fftw-shlibs); however, installation
was unable to proceed because I already have fftw-mpi-shlibs and
fftw-mpi installed. My question is: Is the dependency meant to be
on the specific package (fftw-shlibs) or on the virtual package (
fftw-shlibs)? Note that the virtual package appears to have a
space at the beginning of the name. If the dependency is on the
actual package, I will need to force-remove my fftw-mpi packages
and install the regular versions, but I'm wondering whether this is
necessary. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Charles
It does look to be a dependency on the specific package rather than
the virtual package, since fftw-mpi-shlibs is a perfectly good
provider of " fftw-shlibs". I'm not sure how a .info file handles a
Depend on a virtual package with a space in its name.
(maintainer cc'ed)
It looks like the problem is here in the .info file:
Provides: (%type_raw[-mpi] = -mpi) fftw
this maps to
fftw
when the -mpi variant isn't selected, but
fftw
(note the space) when it is.
