Ian Jackson dixit: There is still nothing per se wrong with circular dependencies Actually, I’m hitting an APT bug during dist-upgrades right now for packages with circular dependencies, usually two (perl with perl-modules, and g++-$version with its library), when they are indirectly depended on by a package with Important: yes set, as was recommended for metapackages which should not be considered by APT for automatic removal. My upgrade documentation for our company wiki has sections like: In case of problems, solve iteratively: * E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'perl'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2) * E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'perl-modules'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2) apt-get --purge install perl -o APT::Immediate-Configure=no apt-get --purge dist-upgrade * E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'g++-4.4'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2) apt-get --purge install build-essential -o APT::Immediate-Configure=no apt-get --purge dist-upgrade And Policy says: […] breaking point is arbitrary. Packages should therefore avoid circular dependencies where possible, particularly if they have ostinst' scripts.
