OK.  I'll reproduce the problem Monday and send more information.

Bug#290597: fails to configure because gs-common is not configured

2005-01-23 Thread Steve Langasek
reassign 290597 gs-common
thanks

Matt,

All of the high-level apt tools should be capable of breaking this kind of
dependency loop between gs-gpl and gs-common, so the most apparent reason
for this kind of failure would be that gs-common could not be configured for
reasons other than this dependency loop.  I think we really need to see the
output of trying to install gs-common on this system in order to debug this.

Thanks,

Oops.  I meant configure, not compile.

That sounds good to me.

Ok, now I understand. Although I find it rather normal that gs-gpl
depends on gs-common but rather weird that gs-common in turn depends
on gs. I would therefor propose to reassign the bug to gs-common.

I reported it against gs-gpl because that was what failed to compile.
There appears to be a dependency loop between gs-gpl, gs-common, and
gs.

I don't quite understand how this would be gs-gpl's fault, it's either
gs-common (because of an error during the configuration) or apt/dpkg,
isn't it? Do you have a complete log of the install, I suspect there
was an error during configuring gs-common.

2005-01-14 Thread Matt Kraai
Package: gs-gpl
Version: 8.01-5
Severity: serious

The Desktop task failed to install while installing Debian because
gs-gpl failed to configure because gs-common was not configured:

 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gs-gpl:
  gs-gpl depends on gs-common (>= 0.2); however:
   Package gs-common is not configured yet.
 dpkg: error processing gs-gpl (--configure):
  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
