Package: lftp Version: 3.5.9-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable

After forcing an install of the 'ftp' package, the 'lftp' package again can be upgraded. I suppose a simple fix would be to make lftp Depend: or Pre-Depend: on ftp, but that does not seem like the optimal solution. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages lftp depends on: ii libc6 2.5-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.2-6 GCC support library ii libgcrypt11 1.2.4-2 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libgnutls13 1.6.2-2 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libgpg-error0 1.4-2 library for common error values an ii libncurses5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.2-2 GNU readline and history libraries ii libtasn1-3 0.3.9-1 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii netbase 4.29 Basic TCP/IP networking system ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-14 compression library - runtime lftp recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
