Package: kde-full Version: 5:92 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
Hi, This bug only appears when upgrading a jessie system to stretch, but is a release blocker at least w/ amd64 arch with foreign i386 arch enabled. As per documentation, dist upgrade from jessie to stretch should work as follows : 1/ update sources.list 2/ apt update 3/ apt upgrade 4/ apt dist-upgrade The issue actually lies at the apt upgrade step, as it is reported that package kdepimlibs-data breaks several other packages, so the upgrade cannot be performed. So then you have either to attempt to fix manually the issue, or with a dist- upgrade, but in both situations the result is the same : the situation becomes completely messy, with many broken packages you have to fix manually with dpkg commands. It is not impossible to run the upgrade this way, but anyway it is painful. Steps to reproduce : DO : install jessie with kde-full metapackage DO : upgrade to stretch EXPECT : upgrade runs fine ACTUAL : upgrade is broken Note : if you cannot reproduce the issue this way, try to upgrade libreoffice from bpo (this might be the cause, but I have serious doubt about this). -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages kde-full depends on: ii kde-plasma-desktop 5:92 ii kde-standard 5:92 ii kdeadmin 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdeartwork 4:15.08.3-2 ii kdeedu 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdegames 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdegraphics 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdemultimedia 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdenetwork 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdepim 4:16.04.3-3 ii kdeutils 4:16.04.0+5.92 Versions of packages kde-full recommends: ii kdeaccessibility 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdesdk 4:16.04.0+5.92 ii kdetoys 4:16.04.0+5.92 pn kdewebdev <none> Versions of packages kde-full suggests: ii calligra 1:2.9.11+dfsg-4 ii kde-l10n-fr [kde-l10n] 4:16.04.3-1 ii xorg 1:7.7+18 -- no debconf information
