Package: aptitude Version: 0.2.15.9-6 Severity: normal
Updating one package with complex dependencies fails: I tried to update from slang1a-utf8 (1.4.9dbs-8) to libslang1-utf8 (1.4.9dbs-10). The following dependencies exist: slang1a-utf8 (1.4.9dbs-8) Conflicts: slang1-utf8 libslang1-utf8 (1.4.9dbs-10) Conflicts: slang1-utf8, slang1a-utf8 Replaces: slang1a-utf8 Provides: slang1a-utf8 util-linux (2.12-7+kbsd.1) PreDepends: slang1a-utf8 (>1.4.4-7.1) Installing libslang1-utf8 is not possible, even though it should be possible to replace slang1a-utf8 with libslang1-utf8 without any problems. I know that kfreebsd-i386 is not an official architecture, but I think the dependency resolution algorithm has not changed there. I also tested with # apt-get -s install libslang1-utf8 but this wanted to remove util-linux as well. I report this issue here nevertheless to make you aware of it, in case aptitude has its own dependency resolution. If that's wrong then please reassign it.
