Hi,
I'd like to get a small update into squeeze-pu to fix an upgrade problem
from lenny. All that is needed is adding a Conflicts on a package that
was removed after lenny (and is also not provided as a virtual package):
* libgmime-2.0-2a: Add Conflicts: libgmime2.2-cil to ensure the obsolete
package from lenny that is incompatible with mono-gac/squeeze gets removed
on upgrades. (Closes: #696375)
(libgmime2.2-cil was previously built from src:gmime2.2)
Upgrades from lenny to squeeze with libgmime2.2-cil installed currently
fail with:
Setting up mono-gac (2.6.7-5.1) ...
* Installing 1 assembly from libglib2.0-cil into Mono
* Installing 1 assembly from libgmime2.2-cil into Mono
E: installing Assembly /usr/lib/cli/gmime-sharp-2.2/gmime-sharp.dll failed
E: Installation of libgmime2.2-cil with /usr/share/cli-common/runtimes.d/mono
failed
dpkg: error processing mono-gac (--configure):
My proposed change may not work for all partial upgrade corner cases
(that would probably require adding the conflict to mono-gac), but I
verified that it works fine on apt-get dist-upgrade.
That fix is not applicable to wheezy or sid as we don't support direct
upgrades from lenny to squeeze+x and I do not see a way to build a valid
(as in "all installed packages are configured, all dependencies are
satisfied, nothing is broken") squeeze system with the ancient
libgmime2.2-cil/lenny still installed that could be upgraded to wheezy.
