I had the same issue trying to (re)install vim-perl after a dist- upgrade. FYI, I can confirm that forcing the old versions of vim-gui- common, vim-common, and vim-runtime in Synaptic allowed me to reinstall vim-perl.
However, I noticed this... $ sudo apt-get update >/dev/null; apt-cache show vim-perl | grep Version Version: 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7 ... but packages.ubuntu.com lists the most recent version as 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7.1 (And after redoing the dist-upgrade, I manually downloaded and install the .deb with dpkg -i with no errors.) Since vim-perl and vim-gtk, but not the prerequisite vim-* packages, are in universe, I wonder if this might be (for me at least) a configuration issue with my sources.list. Hope someone finds this helpful! -- vim-gtk install failed in feisty (7.0.4) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
