To explain: after the update, gettext (which really means gettext-
shlibs but for historical reasons is called gettext) and gettext-
dev are in one package, which is really just a legacy package for
the old version of the library. The libgettext3-shlibs package
contains gettext-bin as a splitoff (this is one of the things that
was causing problems during the update). And gettext-tools is in
yet a third package.
The split between libgettext3-shlibs and gettext-tools follows the
packaging recommendations of the upstream author, and is a good
thing to do because eventually libgettext3-shlibs will be
essential and a part of our bootstrap and this split will
dramatically decrease the bootstrap time. The split itself,
though, is irrelevant for the current problem since both gettext-
bin and gettext-tools are causing trouble.
It's actually only gettext-tools that is the problem. SysState
would be able to resolve the gettext-bin part alone, since the .deb
is available, but it can't resolve it in combination with the
gettext-tools part. Since it can't figure out how to completely fix
the situation, it just reports all the problems--including those it
could fix.
So its only because we don't have a deb for (old) gettext-tools? If
I built the old gettext-tools first it would be OK?
