[Bug 337422] Re: mayavi2 fails to install on jaunty
The latest upload updated the dependencies of mayavi (and fixed other problems) and now it install fine, so I'm closing this bug. Please, update and test again your box, and reopen this bug, or file a new bug report, if needed. Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better! ** Changed in: mayavi2 (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Fix Released ** Changed in: mayavi2 (Ubuntu) Assignee: Siegfried Gevatter (RainCT) (rainct) = (unassigned) -- mayavi2 fails to install on jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 337422] Re: mayavi2 fails to install on jaunty
So is it a package dependency problem (incorrectly defined) or is it a mayavi2 problem (actually depends on python 2.6)? Or, to ask more directly, would using dpkg to force installation of mayavi2 create more problems than it solved (assuming it solves any at all)?

[Bug 337422] Re: mayavi2 fails to install on jaunty
Tim, the problem is that mayavi2 depends on python-vtk, but python-vtk was not able to be installed. (Now it can, since LP #336295 was closed.) So to answer your questions, it is neither an incorrect definition of a package dependency or a mayavi2 problem. Using dpkg to force installation would not solve the problem that mayavi2 depends on python- vtk. But doesn't an apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade get you the new python-vtk (5.0.4-1.1ubuntu1 or better) that actually works? -- mayavi2 fails to install on jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 337422] Re: mayavi2 fails to install on jaunty
There is a dependency problem. Mayavi (and python-vtk) depends on python 2.6, but in Ubuntu the package python depends on python2.6.1, so apt- get can't resolve the dependencies. ** Changed in: mayavi2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: vtk (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium Status: New = Triaged -- mayavi2 fails to install on jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
