Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: openarena
After openarena was backported from Intrepid, it becomes uninstallable.
Aptitude quite literally tells me that the backported version is BROKEN.
When ubuntu-backports in disabled, openarena 0.7.0 seems to install
fine.
There seems to be a conflict that is beyond my technical knowledge but
here is my log:
