Could the problem be vorbis-tools? didn't try 32bit deb, but on amd the reason isn't the vorbis-tools. Libflac 6 conflics with libflac 4, so selecting version 6 will deselect version 4. All these other packages depend specifically on libflac 4, so must be deseleted as wel. I suspect that if libflac 6 really should replace libflac 4 it should also provide package libflac 4 instead of simply conflicting with it. Anyway, this seems like a libflac 6 bug. Did you report it ? Ernest.

You should be seeing the same on i386. This is a general problem with unstable. This should be fixed in a few days. Just don't try to install libflac6 until everything is rebuild against it. And you might want to keep your libflac4 around too. Kurt

This is the only reason I reported this to the list, otherwise I would have just waited as you suggest. Not a problem, it just looked like there might be a detail in the packaging that had gone wrong for amd64. Dave This is a general problem with unstable. This should be fixed in a few days.
