Hi Nigel,

I've bumped into this conflict before 
(https://irc.koha-community.org/out.pl?channel=koha;date=2023-01-11).

That irc fragment was quite helpful. apt-cache rdepends confirms that it's libsoap-lite-perl that's pulling in the libossp-uuid-perl and it's sympa (amongst others) that's pulling in libsoap-lite-perl


The libdata-uuid-perl package is required by libtest-dbix-class-perl, which is 
required for the koha-common package, although it really shouldn't be... we 
haven't gotten around to separating out the dependencies.

Locally, what I do is patch debian/control and generate my own Debian packages, 
but that may or may not be an option for you.

Well, I probably could do it. I certainly could with a little diligent reading of documentation but I'm trying to keep this production system as clean as possible. So probably best just to wait for you guys to get around to sorting out the dependency in your copious spare time. There's no great panic anyway. I was just trying to get my production system a bit closer to stable.

Unfortunately, the shortest path for you might be to move one of your systems 
to a different machine, but this is a topic that certainly needs some work...

I'm getting a little annoyed with Sympa anyway, the documentation is a mess, it has a tendency to leave zombie processes lying around, and its maintainers never answer questions. I may revert back to mailman. Which may fix the problem.

Thanks for the quick response

Nigel

Subject: [Koha-devel] Conflict between libossp-uuid-perl and libdata-uuid-perl

I'm currently running 22.05.13-1 (oldoldstable) on Ubuntu Focal and I'm trying 
to update to 22.11.06-3 (oldstable) and perhaps eventually to stable

However I'm getting the following complaint from apt

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   libossp-uuid-perl : Conflicts: libdata-uuid-perl
E: Broken packages

As far as I can see the sympa package depends on libossp-uuid-perl and koha 
depends on libdata-uuid-perl

Before I start the laborious process of moving either Koha or Sympa to a 
different machine can anyone suggest a fix?

It looks like koha introduced a dependency on libdata-uuid-perl between 
oldoldstable and oldstable

Thanks for any help that anyone can offer

Nigel
