(Report a bug through the Debian bug-tracking system! See http://bugs.debian.org/ for some details.

This is an APT feature; it insists on having consistent and correct dependencies. It also leaves you kind of scrod if you have a package that won't install. But that's what you get for living on the bleeding edge; if you're tracking unstable, this sort of problem shouldn't faze you at all. (FWIW, I got around this issue by just installing libao0, since I didn't have anything else that depended on it. If you have pyao or mpg321, though, this won't work for you.) -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
