Hello,
Running in a pretty clean sid chroot I get this explantion:
----------
(SID)root@argenau:/# apt-get build-dep texlive-bin
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'libpng12-dev' instead of 'libpng-dev'
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgs-dev : Depends: libcupsimage2-dev but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libtiff4-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Build-dependencies for texlive-bin could not be satisfied.
----------
Ok, lets install the fishy packages:
----------
(SID)root@argenau:/# apt-get install libgs-dev libtiff4-dev
----------
[...]
And after that try again:
----------
(SID)root@argenau:/# apt-get build-dep texlive-bin
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libcupsimage2-dev libgs-dev libtiff4-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libgd-dev libgd2-xpm-dev libtiff5-dev
[...]
----------
Rinse and repeat:
----------
(SID)root@argenau:/# apt-get build-dep texlive-bin
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libgd-dev libgd2-xpm-dev libtiff5-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libcupsimage2-dev libgs-dev libtiff4-dev
[...]
----------
It is pretty clear now, texlive-bin build-depends on both libgd-dev
and libgs-dev. The former in turn depends on libtiff5-dev, the latter
on libtiff4-dev. The two libtiff-dev variants conflict with each
other.
I think the proper fix for the time being (until a proper transition
to tiff5 is started) is to ask the libgd-dev maintainer to switch back
to libtiff4-dev.
