Package: apt Version: 1.0.9.10 Severity: important In trying out the latest Stretch d-i alpha, I tried to install the KDE desktop. This failed due to not being able to install task-kde-desktop because kde-standard "is not going to be installed". Following the chain, kde-standard had issues because of kde-plasma-desktop which had issues because of plasma-desktop which had issues because of breeze.
Interestingly, manually installing breeze worked fine and then I could
install task-kde-desktop. Even trying to install breeze and
plasma-desktop together (i.e., "apt install plasma-desktop breeze") did
not work, but once breeze was installed everything went fine.
I've attached the debug::pkgProblemResolver logs from all steps
("install task-kde-desktop", "install kde-standard", "install
kde-plasma-desktop", "install plasma-desktop", "install plasma-desktop
breeze", "install breeze", "install task-kde-desktop").
