Hi. I'm fairly new to debian 'testing'. Trying to install perl-related software, I recieve a chain of unmet dependences that seems to conclude at: wallace:~# apt-get install libgd-perl [...] Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: libgd-perl: Depends: perlapi-5.6.1 but it is not installable E: Sorry, broken packages
I have perl 5.8 installed, though: wallace:~# dpkg -l '*perl*' |grep '^ii' ii libperl5.8 5.8.0-17 Shared Perl library. ii perl 5.8.0-17 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction and Report ii perl-base 5.8.0-17 The Pathologically Eclectic Rubbish Lister. ii perl-modules 5.8.0-17 Core Perl modules. If I understand correctly the FAQs, it's normal to have such a kind of broken packages in testing (in fact I see that libgd-perl is marked uninstallable, and perlapi unavailable). So, probably I'm not supposed to file a bug-report (?). My question is: is there a way to use in testing bioperl, med-bio and all those packages that depend on libgd-perl? Any help will be GREATLY appreciated :-))
