Public bug reported: Using Ubuntu Trusty, I cannot install a package that has an architecture "any" package dependency. For example, this is the case when attempting to install https://packages.debian.org/sid/kgb-bot which depends on "perl:any". Newer dpkg versions correctly interpret this "any" as an architecture specification for "perl" and continue the installation.
Just like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1730627 has recently backported a feature from newer dpkg to Trusty's older version, this should also be possible to fix this bug. ** Affects: dpkg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1756055 Title: Architecture "any" package dependencies not supported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1756055/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
