Good afternoon guys My name is Gustavo, I am working with the Synce PPA sources to make a DEB version for the current Debian stable *"Bullseye"*. I am not a developer, my specialty is system administration. In the past I've been encouraged to make minor changes to Synce's Python source to adapt it to my needs (in Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy). Today, making an updated version for Debian is a major challenge for me. I am focused on five packages: *libmimedir*, *librra*, *librtfcomp *libraries along with *synce-core* and *synce-sync-engine*.
For this purpose, I am using this post as a guide: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/connection-linux-pda-windowsce-4175560071/#post5465293 I prepared the build system with pbuilder, and the result was something strange, unexpected. At the end of the operation, the output indicates that there are unsatisfied dependencies, but these packages are installed in the same or higher version $ sudo /usr/sbin/pbuilder build synce-sync-engine_0.16-0.1~0debian0~bullseye1.dsc (...) dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: debhelper (>= 5) python-setuptools python (>= 2.6.6-3) dpkg-buildpackage: warning: build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting But, APT says otherwise... # apt show debhelper Package: debhelper Version: 13.3.4 # apt show python-setuptools Package: python-setuptools Version: 44.1.1-1 # apt show python Package: python State: not a real (virtual) package N: Cannot select the candidate version of the python package since it has no candidates N: Different versions of the "python" package cannot be selected because it is purely virtual N: No package found $ sudo /usr/sbin/pbuilder build synce-core_0.17-0.1~0debian0~bullseye1.dsc (...) dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: debhelper (>= 5) libglib2.0-dev (>= 2.26.0) python (>> 2.6.6) python-all-dev (>> 2.6.6) python-pyrex (>= 0.9.6) quilt ppp libgudev-1.0-dev udev dpkg-buildpackage: warning: build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting But... # apt show debhelper Package: debhelper Version: 13.3.4 # apt show libglib2.0-dev Package: libglib2.0-dev Version: 2.66.8-1 # apt show python Package: python State: not a real (virtual) package N: Cannot select the candidate version of the python package since it has no candidates N: Different versions of the "python" package cannot be selected because it is purely virtual N: No package found # apt show python-all-dev Package: python-all-dev Version: 2.7.18-3 # apt show python-pyrex (NOT in Bullseye, download from Debian Buster repository) Package: python-pyrex Version: 0.9.9-1 # apt show quilt Package: quilt Version: 0.66-2.1 # apt show ppp Package: ppp Version: 2.4.9-1+1 # apt show libgudev-1.0-dev Package: libgudev-1.0-dev Version: 234-1 # apt show udev Package: udev Version: 247.3-7+deb11u1 Taking a look at the version of Python installed... # apt list --installed | grep ^python | grep stable | cut -d "/" -f 1 python-all-dev python-all python-apt-common python-dev-is-python2 python-is-python2 python-pkg-resources python-setuptools python2-dev python2-minimal python2.7-dev python2.7-minimal python2.7 python2 python3-apt python3-brlapi python3-cairo python3-certifi python3-chardet python3-cups python3-cupshelpers python3-dbus python3-debian python3-distro-info python3-distro python3-distutils python3-gi-cairo python3-gi python3-gpg python3-ibus-1.0 python3-idna python3-ldb python3-lib2to3 python3-libvoikko python3-louis python3-magic python3-mako python3-markupsafe python3-minimal python3-numpy python3-pkg-resources python3-pyatspi python3-pycurl python3-pyside2.qtcore python3-pyside2.qtgui python3-pyside2.qtwidgets python3-requests python3-six python3-smbc python3-software-properties python3-speechd python3-talloc python3-unidiff python3-uno python3-urllib3 python3-xdg python3.9-minimal python3.9 python3 *Any help will be very welcome!!!* Best regards to all
