However, we have a patch now uploaded to the archive which is known to fix the problem.

As i tried to describe above APT rates the package which should be removed as too important - at least compared to the package it can fix with this remove, so if you see this error or not depends on the installed packages: With ffmpeg is the dependency chain strong enough to indicate that libavcodec51 has to leave, if you have only vlc-nox (which doesn't require ffmpeg) installed the chain isn't strong enough. Also, requesting a package explicitly with install will modify the scoring so you will likely get a different situation compared to a dist-upgrade. So, in summary: Its possible that no "normal" user will ever see this upgrade problem as such a user will likely have more packages installed which depend on these libav* stuff… (you only need to define what a "normal" user is now…) Best regards David Kalnischkies ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

After preparing an upload for this, I've tried to reproduce this issue myself in a virtual machine. The thing is, I've not been able to reproduce this neither with lenny's apt, nor squeeze's apt (0.7.25.3) nor sid's (0.8.0) apt. What I've did was: - do a basic lenny installation - apt-get install install ffmpeg - sed -i s,lenny,sid,g /etc/apt/sources.list - apt-get update -qq - apt-get install ffmpeg AFAIUI the bugreport, this should trigger this bug, however, I fail to reproduce it. I've also tried with vlc and vlc-nox, but this worked just fine as well.

2010/8/26 Reinhard Tartler : > I'm still waiting for an answer on this question. Is this issue solved > with the latest upload, or do you prefer me to upload the patch posted > above? Sorry, should have sent that to the bug itself, too… (we discussed that a bit on irc last week i think) It would be nice if you could fix it in your package (which at least feels a bit cleaner anyway: liba2 breaks liba1 sounds saner than libpartlyunrelated breaks liba1). The thing is, fixing it for APT is a bit more complicated than it looks: The patch changes a line which is old. And if i say old than i mean that this one-line patch circumvents the score-consideration introduced in rev. 8 of the source. Call me nostalgic, but i am pretty sure that changing code which is from 1998 and survived until now shouldn't be changed to upgrade one package shortly before a release if it can be worked-around easily… (okay, the breaks are newer - they are from 2006…) Not because this couldn't be an old bug, but because changing it now without in-deep testing will very likely break something else. (scoring is an important concept in the resolver, so my personal guess is that we can safely place bets on the possibility that it will break…) We can consider this after squeeze then we have ~2 years of testing before shipping it… Best regards David Kalnischkies ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

If you move the Breaks from libavformat52 to libavcodec52 and depend on
the libavcodec52 with that breaks, it will work.
On the APT side, this patch can fix it; but I am not sure whether it
will break other cases of Breaks:

This smells like a apt bug, it seems to not parse the versioned Breaks correctly? aptitude gets it right.

I find this pretty hard to believe, espc. since it has been isntalled successfully earlier in the log. the last step of your script seems to install again a larger number of packages from sid, but holds back libavformat.
