Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-store

When installing several packages, it gave an error when installing
Eclipse in 9.10 alpha 6:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/aptdaemon/worker.py", line 91, in 
_process_transaction
    self.install_packages(**self.trans.kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/aptdaemon/worker.py", line 155, in 
install_packages
    self._mark_packages_for_installation(package_names)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/aptdaemon/worker.py", line 178, in 
_mark_packages_for_installation
    pkg.markInstall()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/apt/package.py", line 1076, in 
markInstall
    fixer.Resolve(True)
SystemError: E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

The "This should not happen" (see screenshot) tells me this should not
happen.

Synaptic gives:
eclipse-platform:
 Vereisten: eclipse-rcp maar het wordt niet genstalleerd
 Aanbevelingen: eclipse-platform-gcj maar het wordt niet genstalleerd
 Aanbevelingen: eclipse maar het wordt niet genstalleerd

(by the way: Eclipse-dependencies are broken, as you already might have
guessed)
