Hollydays ? 10:08 <@_rene_> apparently 10:09 <@_rene_> lgodard: non-bug. user error. 10:09 -!- geki_ (death within) [EMAIL PROTECTED] has joined #dev.openoffice.org 10:09 <@lgodard> _rene_: what do you mean ? 10:09 <@_rene_> this is a user error. this is *not* a bug 10:09 <@lgodard> _rene_: what kind of error ? 10:09 <@_rene_> neither in the debs nor in aptitude 10:10 <@lgodard> _rene_: what should we do to avoid this ? 10:10 <@_rene_> lgodard: when you install something using dpkg -i, aptitude might think they were automatically installed due to deps 10:10 <@_rene_> lgodard: and when it thinks that, if nothing depends on it anymore aptitude will remove it. that's a feature 10:10 <@_rene_> lgodard: your user can't be *that* experienced, otherwise he'd know that... 10:11 <@_rene_> lgodard: (no offense intended) 10:11 <@_rene_> lgodard: but that happens, it's just a bad coincidence between dpkg -i and aptitude and (maybe) apt-get 0.7.x in the future 10:11 <@_rene_> lgodard: you, as OOo, can't do *anything* wrt it 10:12 <@lgodard> _rene_: is there a way to avoid this ? 10:12 <@lgodard> _rene_: an alternate installation process ? 10:12 <@_rene_> well, you *could* disable that feature in aptitude. otherwise, no 10:13 <@lgodard> _rene_: you meen freeze ooo .deb versions, mark them as not being handle ? 10:13 <@lgodard> _rene_: /me just tries to understand and find a suitable solution 10:13 <@_rene_> no. you can't do anything for this in the packages. 10:14 <@IZBot> New news from mws: SRC680_m219 ready for use. 10:14 <@_rene_> aptitude has a feature to remove not used packages anymore when they got automatically installed 10:14 <@_rene_> like: if you install kde, the kdelibs get installed, right? 10:14 <@_rene_> so, "normally" with apt-get, if you remove kde again, kdelibs would still be there because you just told apt-get you want to remove whatever but didn't say kdelibs 10:15 <@_rene_> aptitude (and apt 0.7.x now) have the feature that it tracks what got automatically installed 10:15 <@_rene_> and in that case, when removing kde, it also would remove kdelibs when it's not needed anymore 10:15 <@_rene_> and in this case, it thinks that the OOo packages are not needed anymore. for whatever reason. 10:17 -!- _Nesshof_ (Ratte) [EMAIL PROTECTED] has joined #dev.openoffice.org 10:23 <@lgodard> _rene_: thx a lot for your response 10:23 <@_rene_> feel free to paste this to the issue. or should I? 10:23 <@lgodard> _rene_: yes please do it --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
