aj for sid, the non dep-resolving fix is to get the overrides changed so
libslang2 is the same priority as whatever it depends on
joeyh hmm, I see. So should d-i start using --resolve-deps to get the added
robustness?
joeyh (libslang2 is already standard, but whiptail is prio important)
aj d-i betas, yeah; pretty much until the point of release candidates
joeyh until base is frozen, but not after, because of .. overhead?
aj the dependency resolver isn't particularly precise or particularly fast
Yes. My upload of libslang2 2.0.4, which was supposed to go into the
archive at the same time as libnewt, didn't; it had the changeover to
Priority: required.
So we need an override to either make whiptail be standard priority, or
libslang2 important priority.
