I'm running Kubuntu 12.04 (precise) amd64 , and I found the obsolete defoma, x-ttcidfont-conf, and psfontmgr packages on my system, even though my system's packages include the libpango1.0-0 version 1.30.0-0ubuntu2 mentioned here that supposedly drops these dependencies.
It turns out I also had the obsolete libpango1.0-common version 1.28.2-0ubuntu1.1 installed (note *-common* in the name), even though it seems this was last used in maverick. Removing that package let me remove and purge these other obsolete packages. Perhaps libpango1.0-0 should have a "Replaces: libpango1.0-common" line. Or maybe there was a bug somewhere along the way in the O.S. upgrades — I've upgraded from 9.04 (jaunty) without ever doing a full reinstall! ;-) Or most likely it's just user error. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/983274 Title: pango should drop the recommends on x-ttcidfont-conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pango1.0/+bug/983274/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
