--- Begin Message ---Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.4-4 Severity: normal Hi, I seem to remember that previously when some packages were left in a broken state in an upgrade those packages were shown as broken/installable (or something) in the aptitude ui. Nowadays even when the installation leaves packages broken, after I get back to the UI pressing 'g' simply says "No packages are scheduled to be installed, removed, or upgraded". For example, this is what the installation process reported: ------------------------------------------------------------ [...] Errors were encountered while processing: python python-dev python-gmenu gnome-menus pykdeextensions E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) A package failed to install. Trying to recover: Setting up python (2.4.4-5) ... dpkg: error processing python (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of pykdeextensions: pykdeextensions depends on python (<< 2.5); however: Package python is not configured yet. pykdeextensions depends on python (>= 2.4); however: Package python is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing pykdeextensions (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-dev: python-dev depends on python (= 2.4.4-5); however: Package python is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing python-dev (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-gmenu: python-gmenu depends on python (<< 2.6); however: Package python is not configured yet. python-gmenu depends on python (>= 2.4); however: Package python is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing python-gmenu (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gnome-menus: gnome-menus depends on python (>= 2.3); however: Package python is not configured yet. gnome-menus depends on python-gmenu (= 2.18.0-2); however: Package python-gmenu is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing gnome-menus (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: python pykdeextensions python-dev python-gmenu gnome-menus ------------------------------------------------------------ When I look in the UI, this is what the packages look like: ------------------------------------------------------------ C python 2.4.4-5 2.4.4-5 u A pykdeextensions 0.4.0-4 0.4.0-4 u python-dev 2.4.4-5 2.4.4-5 u A python-gmenu 2.18.0-2 2.18.0-2 u A gnome-menus 2.18.0-2 2.18.0-2 ------------------------------------------------------------ However they are all listed among correctly installed packages and nothing except the C or u state shows that they haven't been installed correctly. Also as I said, pressing 'g' just reports nothing to do. I think the former behavior was definitely more intuitive and correct.

--- Begin Message ---Version: 0.4.5.1-1 Apparently dinstall neglected to send a closing message for these bugs when 0.4.5.1-1 was uploaded. aptitude (0.4.5.1-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream version. * This version merges in the code I wrote in 2005 to support the patch against apt to add removal of automatic patches. aptitude should merge its list of "automatic" packages into the global apt list when it's run. * aptitude will now let you go ahead when there isn't anything to change, but some packages need to be configured. (Closes: #424709) * Translation updates: - French (Closes: #428585, #428826) - Portuguese (Closes: #425779) - Vietnamese (Closes: #426976) * Use debian/compat instead of DH_COMPAT; switch to debhelper compatibility level 5. -- Daniel Burrows <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fri, 15 Jun 2007 08:53:06 -0700 Daniel
