Which version? This is very important information.

Dear Maintainer,

    I tried to install the packages to compile Samba 4.2, this usually
    means installing libgnutls-dev, but this seems to have been replaced
    by libgnutls28-dev, YOU CANNOT INSTALL THIS!
That by definition means that you're not dealing with "unrelated
software". Please don't inflate severities.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgnutls28-dev :
Depends: libgnutls-deb0-28 (= 3.3.8-6~bpo70+1) but 3.3.8-6 is to be installed
Depends: libgnutlsxx28 (= 3.3.8-6~bpo70+1) but it is not going to be installed
[...]
Depends: libldap-2.4-2 (= 2.4.31+really2.4.40-4~bpo70+1) but 2.4.40-4 is to be 
installed
All of these suggest that you're trying to install gnutls28-dev from
wheezy-backports, but your system information says:
[...]
   APT prefers testing-updates
   APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (100, 'testing')
[Note that "testing-updates" is a fairly redundant sources.list entry,
as it will never contain any packages; jessie-updates only exists right
now so that it's in place for when it becomes stable-updates. Did you
perhaps means testing-proposed-updates?]

but also:

Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core)
I'm confused as to how your system is in a state containing, and trying
to install, packages from wheezy-backports but claiming to only have
testing-related sources.list entries.

Please provide:

- the _exact_ command you ran when trying to install libgnutls28-dev
- the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list
- the result of "apt-cache policy libgnutls28-dev" and "apt-cache policy
libgnutls28".

Regards,

Adam


Thanks for pointing out that I had shot myself in the foot :-[

I ran a script, that somehow added the wheezy backports repo, this must have been my fault, I wrote the script :-[ :-[

Sorry for the noise.
