From: Marcus Sundman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Ubuntu Bug Tracking System <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: gdebi: Fails to upgrade packages Date: Thu, 03 Aug 2006 23:55:24 +0300 Package: gdebi Version: 0.1.4ubuntu13 Severity: normal Gdebi fails to install a package of which an earlier version is already installed, claiming that the new package conflicts with the existing. I say "install" because that's what dpkg calls it when the old version of the package is removed and the new one is installed. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers dapper-updates APT policy: (500, 'dapper-updates'), (500, 'dapper-security'), (500, 'dapper-backports'), (500, 'dapper') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-26-k7 Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gdebi depends on: ii gksu 1.3.7-0ubuntu9 graphical frontend to su ii gnome-icon-theme 2.14.2-0ubuntu2 GNOME Desktop icon theme ii python 2.4.2-0ubuntu3 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-apt 0.6.16.2ubuntu8 Python interface to libapt-pkg ii python-glade2 2.8.6-0ubuntu1 GTK+ bindings: Glade support ii python-gtk2 2.8.6-0ubuntu1 Python bindings for the GTK+ widge ii python-vte 1:0.12.2-0ubuntu1 Python bindings for the VTE widget gdebi recommends no packages. -- no debconf information ** Affects: gdebi (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- gdebi: Fails to upgrade packages https://launchpad.net/bugs/55624 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
