Control: reassign -1 libqt4-dbus Control: tag -1 pending The real cause of this problem is the circular dependency of qdbus and libqt4- dbus.
The root of this problem comes from the switch to multiarch of Qt4. qdbus (an application) used to be part of the libqt4-dbus package, which also included the library itself. When the switch to M-A was done, qdbus had to be packaged in a separate package. There are some apps that depend on libqt4-dbus in order to have qdbus at hand (and a lot of them just got qdbus because they linked against libqt4- dbus). In order to avoid a transition, which we could not do in time for the freeze, we made libqt4-dbus depend on qdbus. But qdbus itself links against libqt4-dbus, and so the circular dependency appeared. At first there seemed to be no problems at all, as the upgrades in Sid/Wheezy went smooth. But it turned out that apt in Squeeze can't handle this cleanly, thus generating this bug. We have fixed the circular dependency by adding another package (more details in qt4-x11's changelog to come). I will now send an unblock pre-approval mail to the RT to see if they would accept this change and get this bug solved.
