It’s actually wanna-build that’s the problem here. But as soon as you introduce build profiles, wanna-build on dpo completely chokes, so please don’t do that. In the current case, it’s a simple matter of either dropping that Depends (as already recommended) or someone doing a porter upload of the involved packages. bye, //mirabilos
