Clint, where do you see a *circular* dependency? The dependencies that you show are not circular.
Also the ordering of package installation is decided by apt and not dpkg, so this is an apt bug if any. ** Also affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1007433 Title: circular dependency causes zookeeperd to not be running after installation of zookeeperd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1007433/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
