Public bug reported:
Hi,
There is a naming conflict between the Hardy Heron version of mplayer
which identifies itself as:
2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu7
and the debian package generated from the current svn mplayer which
identifies itself from debian/changelog as
1.0svn
This leads to apt deciding that the svn version is in fact older than
the repository version and installing 2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu7 in place of the
svn mplayer. An ugly fix for this is to alter the debian/changelog file
from:
mplayer (1.0svn) unstable; urgency=low
to:
mplayer (3:1.0svn) unstable; urgency=low
I have approached the mplayer-users mailing list with this issue but was
keen to see if something could be fixed from the Ubuntu end,
particularly as Hardy Heron is still 'under construction'.
Thanks for your trouble,
Andrew
