--- Begin Message ---Package: python3.8 Version: 3.8.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Installation of packages depending on samba failed, and when I tried installing samba itself I got this: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: samba : Depends: python3 (< 3.8) but 3.8.2-1 is to be installed Depends: python3-samba but it is not going to be installed Depends: samba-common-bin (= 2:4.11.5+dfsg-1) but it is not going to be installed Depends: samba-libs (= 2:4.11.5+dfsg-1) but it is not going to be installed Recommends: attr but it is not going to be installed Recommends: python3-markdown but it is not going to be installed Recommends: samba-dsdb-modules but it is not going to be installed Recommends: samba-vfs-modules but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. I installed python3.7 (3.7.6-1), but that didn't fix the problem. I additionally enabled Testing repositories, to no avail. As a result, I can't install anything (like mpv, gvfs-backend etc) that requires python3 < 3.8. Not to mention --fix-broken didn't help, either. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.4.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages python3.8 depends on: ii libpython3.8-stdlib 3.8.2-1 ii mime-support 3.64 ii python3.8-minimal 3.8.2-1 python3.8 recommends no packages.

Please wait a few days/weeks until things are rebuilt.
