Hey,

I'm running Debian sid and want to use TeX Live from CTAN. So I didn't
install the Debian texlive-packages, but created a virtual local package
with equivs (followed the advice on <URL:
http://www.tug.org/texlive/debian.html>). You can find the contents of the
control file below:

    Description: My local installation of TeX Live 2013.
     A full "vanilla" TeX Live 2013
     http://tug.org/texlive/debian#vanilla

I used equivs-build to create the Debian package and installed it. However
when I open apt-get, aptitude or other package managers I get the following
message:

W: Ignoring Provides line with DepCompareOp for package texlive-latex-base

It advises to call apt-get update which I did, but the message stays. Why
does this message appear and what can I do to correct this warning?

The package texlive-latex-base itself not installed:

    > apt-cache policy texlive-latex-base
    texlive-latex-base:
      Installed: (none)
      Candidate: 2013.20140215-1
