Bug#524174: xfce4 package in unstable (4.6.0-2) is not installable
Package: xfce4 Version: 4.4.2.1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable The xfce4 meta-package currently in unstable can not be installed due to unfulfillable dependencies. When trying to install it, I get: The following packages have unmet dependencies: xfce4: Depends: xfce4-settings (= 4.6.0) but it is not installable Depends: xfce4-session (= 4.6.0) but 4.4.2-6 is to be installed However, xfce4-settings is neither in unstable nor in experimental. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (700, 'unstable'), (500, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.28-metal (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xfce4 depends on: ii gtk2-engines-xfce 2.6.0-2A GTK+-2.0 theme engine for Xfce ii thunar1.0.0-2File Manager for Xfce ii xfce4-icon-theme 4.4.2-1Xfce Standard icon theme ii xfce4-mcs-plugins 4.4.2-4Special modules for the xfce4-mcs- ii xfce4-panel 4.6.0-2The Xfce4 desktop environment pane ii xfce4-session 4.4.2-6Xfce4 Session Manager ii xfce4-utils 4.6.0-2Various tools for Xfce ii xfdesktop44.6.0-2xfce desktop background, icons and ii xfwm4 4.6.0-2window manager of the Xfce project Versions of packages xfce4 recommends: ii desktop-base 5.0.5 common files for the Debian Deskto ii orage 4.6.0-2Calendar for Xfce Desktop Environm ii xfce4-mixer 4.6.0-2Xfce mixer application ii xfce4-terminal0.2.10-2 Xfce terminal emulator ii xfprint4 4.6.0-2Printer GUI for Xfce4 ii xorg 1:7.4+1X.Org X Window System xfce4 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#524174: [Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#524174: xfce4 package in unstable (4.6.0-2) is not installable
On Wednesday 15 April 2009 13:06:04 you wrote: If you run unstable you should be prepared for such temporary issues. You can see that: * xfce4-settings is indeed in unstable: http://packages.qa.debian.org/x/xfce4-settings.html * xfce4-settings isn't yet built for i386: https://buildd.debian.org/~luk/status/package.php?p=xfce4-settings (it might be by the time you read this) So this isn't a bug, it's just the normal operation of unstable. That situation has now persisted for about a week, which is approximately the amount of time I can stand using KDE 4, and which is beginning to stretch the meaning of temporary. That is why I brought it to attention with a bug report. I am willing to sit through issues in unstable, and I understand the issues involved in using it, but for all I know the maintainer's main focus may be on another architecture, and a missing package may just be a simple oversight. The bug report was in no way meant to be a kick in the shins.

For what it's worth I was able to update the last few pieces of xfce4 4.6 that are still in process by installing all the build dependencies and building the blocked packages from the sources, which are currently in unstable. Each one (I think there were three at the time) only took a few minutes. -- -| Bob Hauck -| http://www.haucks.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
