Package: cheese Version: 3.16.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Can we seriously cross-reference the test harness dependencies to figure out that when other packages upgrade to GNOME 3.18.0 [Example: gnome-contacts] that adjacent packages, like Cheese 3.18.0 don't break and uninstall already the latest 3.18 packages? Seriously, this entire upgrade along with the GCC 5 transition is an abomination. Finish the GCC 5 transition with GNOME 3.16 and then move in 3.18. Too many breaks make zero sense. The Fact gnome-control-center is built but the rquired libgdesktop 3.12 is non-existent and those packages are uploaded to Experimental anyways speaks volumes to the problems not being mitigated to avoid the end user from taking a bath on broken packages. - Marc -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages cheese depends on: ii cheese-common 3.16.1-1 ii gnome-video-effects 0.4.1-3 ii libc6 2.21-0experimental1 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.30-2.1 ii libcheese-gtk23 3.16.1-1 ii libcheese7 3.16.1-1 ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.24.0-1 ii libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 1.6.4-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.32.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.46.0-2 ii libgnome-desktop-3-10 3.16.2-2 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.6.0-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.18.0-2 Versions of packages cheese recommends: ii gnome-icon-theme 3.12.0-1 ii gvfs 1.25.92-1 ii hicolor-icon-theme 0.13-1 ii nautilus-sendto 3.8.2-1 ii yelp 3.16.1-1 Versions of packages cheese suggests: pn gnome-video-effects-frei0r <none> -- no debconf information
