As was just discussed on #debian-ftp 21:43 _rene_ can some ftp-person shed some light on why, though openoffice.org-* 3.3.0-3 is in the archive, it doesn't appear in Packages file (clean sid chroot doesn't see it?) 21:44 _rene_ maybe because there's the old ones taking precedence? 21:44 _rene_ (they are arch-dep, while the new ones are all arch-indep - transitional packages) 21:45 _rene_ which then results in e.g. #612807 21:47 Ganneff could it be that you converted it all to arch:all? 21:49 _rene_ yep 21:49 _rene_ all packages 21:49 _rene_ (and I dropped some which don't need transitional packages) 21:52 Ganneff twerner: is that a case touched by the changes from last essen, where newer arch all will be hold back due to missing arch any? ie need to remove older arch any here 21:53 _rene_ ah, that would make sense, yes. 21:53 _rene_ like when you upload package X which has _all packages and X isn't yet built. 21:54 _rene_ that would also explain the britney symptoms... 21:59 _rene_ should I file a RM or will you do it? 21:59 Ganneff you could file one [...] 22:07 _rene_ twerner: filed a bug [...] 22:11 _rene_ twerner: 612813 Grüße/Regards, René -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
