Package: apt Version: 0.7.25.3 Severity: important It seems that apt-get version comparison is broken (???). I have ia32-libs (20101012) and I can not install ia32-libs-libssh2 which requires ia32-libs (>= 20090808). AFAIK (20101012 >= 20090808) is true :)
ia32-libs-libssh2 is an example. I also can not instal bunch of other packages for the same reasons: flashplayer-mozilla ia32-libs-libcurl3 ia32-libs-libidn11 ia32-libs-libnspr4 ia32-libs-libnss3 sal...@salmin:~$ apt-cache show ia32-libs-libssh2 Package: ia32-libs-libssh2 Priority: optional Section: libs Installed-Size: 176 Maintainer: Christian Marillat <maril...@debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Version: 1.2.5-0.0 Depends: ia32-libs (>= 20090808) Filename: pool/main/i/ia32-libs-libssh2/ia32-libs-libssh2_1.2.5-0.0_amd64.deb Size: 63204 MD5sum: 053992c4deafac232ee636bc206ca956 SHA1: 9d15c168e8b4f176251dd22053e161f864c4525a SHA256: 277e9f04cd6682e35eafc0890f60a4170649ab678dbec607b9bc2565465b3787 Description: libssh2 ia32 shared libraries This package delivers a set of pre-compiled ia32 (i386 family) shared libraries, so that third-party 32bit programs can use the SSH2 client-side Library on 64-bit systems that include appropriate emulation support.
