--- Begin Message ---Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.10-1+b2 Severity: normal -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When you use the -t option to choose a different archive when installing a metapackage, only the metapackage itself is installed from the selected archive. Its dependencies - the ones that matter in this case - are installed from the default archive, so the option is pretty useless here. Instead, aptitude should e.g. also install dependencies from the specified archive. - -- Package-specific info: Terminal: xterm $DISPLAY is set. - -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (300, 'hardy'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.2-custom-initrd (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.7-6 0.7.11 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.7-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcwidget1 0.5.6.1-3 high-level terminal interface libr ii libgcc1 1:4.3.0-1 GCC support library ii libncursesw5 5.6+20080203-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.18-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.3.0-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 Versions of packages aptitude recommends: pn aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-do <none> (no description available) pn libparse-debianchangelog-perl <none> (no description available) - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFH2V1Yx4r6EkTlIb0RAqdEAJoCoAb+qfBuxWRmxQniZ8rWtRp0OQCeNI/n Z2Tqd4ImZQjGz70k2LLlf2A= =7jcu -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
