Package: lazarus-1.6
Severity: grave
Dear Maintainer,
Installation of lazarus-1.6 fails citing a dependency on lazarus-ide-1.6,
which in turn fails installation citing a dependency on lcl-1.6. Manual
installation of lcl-1.6 leads to lazarus-1.6 failing to install due to an
unresolved dependency, reproduced below:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
lazarus-1.6 : Depends: lazarus-ide (>= 1.6.2+dfsg-1~bpo8+1)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
The package was installed successfully before despite this error, however,
fp-units-* packages do not get installed along with the compiler package
this IDE depends on. In diagnosing that error I uninstalled and attempted
to reinstall. Now, launching the IDE via the applications menu causes
the lazarus launcher to state that the binary is missing (though the splash
screen appears).
To clarify: straightforward installation of lazarus-1.6 fails, but can be
managed by beating aptitude over the head. After doing so the IDE still fails
to compile anything due to dependencies it did not install.
Respectfully,
R0b0t1

I received a private message from the bug submitter where he explained
that indeed it was an user mistake to install a package from back ports
without telling apt-get so.
I don't believe there is anything to be fixed here.
