Unfortunately it's a little hard for me to understand the problem you are having. Specially because you are mixing stable, testing and unstable in a single system, it's kind of hard figuring out what's going on there. Can you please describe a reproducible test case? I just tried two upgrade scenarios and both worked for me: 0) install ruby on wheezy, full upgrade to sid 1) install ruby on wheezy, update sources.list to sid, upgrade only ruby -- Antonio Terceiro signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#741733: Circular dependencies cause trouble when doing upgrade
Package: ruby Version: 1:1.9.3.4 Severity: serious I try to upgrade ruby from version 1:1.9.3 to version 1:1.9.3.4 . Aptitude refuses to do it, because I must install ruby1.9.1 version >= 1.9.3.194-1 . I try to be sure and install version 1.9.3.484-2 . It depends on ruby version >= 1:1.9.3.1 . Only 1:1.9.3.4 is available. This is the first circular dependency. ruby1.9.1 version 1.9.3.484-2 also depends on libruby1.9.1 version = 1.9.3.484-2 . I try to install it, but it is not possible, because it depends on ruby1.9.1 version = 1.9.3.484-2 . But I already was unable to install that, as I said before. No matter how many times I go to dependency of some package I try to install, I end up to same packages again and again and because they refuse to install, because their dependencies are not yet installed, and those dependencies refuse to install and so on, so on, ad nauseam, ad infinitum. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-proposed-updates'), (102, 'testing'), (101, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=fi_FI.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ruby depends on: ii ruby1.9.1 1.9.3.484-1 ruby recommends no packages.
