Bug in testing abiword package?
Under testing and gnome 2.2 I'm trying to install abiword issuing the command apt-get install abiword. The installation fails immediatedly because (unfortunately I'm translating from Italian into English!) Abiword depends on libperl5.6 (= 5.6.1-8.3) while you're using version 5.6.1-8.2. After an apt-get update; apt-get upgrade I still have a libperl5.6 5.6.1-8.2 perfectly installed. Have I found a bug or there's something I can't catch?

Please help Vittorio There isn't a testing abiword package right now; libperl5.6 isn't in testing as well[perl is at 5.8]. Perhaps you are using stable? pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

This is a good example of how that results in confusion and tends to be a bad idea unless you're very familiar with both distributions. (That's not to say that there are no uninstallable packages in testing.) Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Please help Vittorio Since you're on testing, it may be worth waiting a day or so and seeing if this resolves itself. On the other hand, here in unstable-land, it looks like 5.6.1-8.2 is *also* the most recent version of perl ... so maybe you should file a bug report? I don't see anything obviously related here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=abiword The 'reportbug' command is pretty awesome and automates a lot of the bug-report drudge work. -- monique -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Looking at 'grep-excuses abiword' (install the devscripts package), it'll be a while before any version of abiword arrives in testing. The is buggy lines are the most immediate problems. On the other hand, here in unstable-land, it looks like 5.6.1-8.2 is *also* the most recent version of perl ... Unstable has perl 5.8.2-2.
