Package: qemu-user-static Version: 1:10.0.3+ds-3 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, What led up to the situation: I attempted to install `pbuilder` and `qemu-user-static` for cross-build environment, but encountered an unresolvable dependency loop between qemu-related packages. What exactly I did: 1. Ran `sudo apt update` to synchronize package lists. 2. Ran `sudo apt install pbuilder qemu-user-static` to install required build tools. What was the outcome of this action: The installation failed with a dependency conflict error. Key issues: 1. My current installed version of `qemu-user-static` is 1:10.0.3+ds-3, which depends on `qemu-user (>= 1:10.0.7+ds-0+deb13u1+b1)` and `qemu-user-binfmt (>= 1:10.0.7+ds-0+deb13u1+b1)`. 2. The Debian unstable repository provides a newer version of `qemu-user` (1:10.2.0+ds-2), whose recommended dependency `qemu-user-binfmt (1:10.2.0+ds-2)` breaks the existing `qemu-user-static`. 3. This forms a closed dependency loop: upgrading to satisfy dependencies breaks existing packages, while keeping existing packages fails to meet the dependency requirements of `qemu-user-static`. 4. The error log shows "Unable to satisfy dependencies. Reached two conflicting assignments" (detailed logs are attached). What outcome I expected instead: `qemu-user-static` should be installed successfully without dependency conflicts, or the package's `Depends`/`Breaks` fields should be configured to avoid such a loop. Additional Notes: 1. The bug exists in Debian forky/sid (unstable) branch. 2. No existing bug reports in the Debian BTS cover this specific dependency loop. 3. Attached are the full system information, package version details, and error logs for further verification. -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.18.3+deb14-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=zh_CN:zh_CN:zh Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages qemu-user-static depends on: ii qemu-user 1:10.0.3+ds-3 ii qemu-user-binfmt 1:10.0.3+ds-3 qemu-user-static recommends no packages. qemu-user-static suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
