Python3-ldb-dev only exists in Xenial - >=Yakkety it got dropped again. >=Zesty it is a sync again and it never existed in Debian.
This came in via: ldb (2:1.1.24-1ubuntu3) xenial; urgency=medium * Build Python3 bindings. [...] -- Matthias Klose <d...@ubuntu.com> Thu, 18 Feb 2016 18:17:39 +0100 There was no bug linked that explains the reasoning to add one in more Detail. I followed how this was dropped again. In zesty it became a sync for the minor fixes being in Debian now. But the python3 things got dropped in: ldb (2:1.1.26-1ubuntu3) yakkety; urgency=medium * Drop python3 packages again. No reverse dependencies, and python3-talloc-dev is NBS. -- Martin Pitt <martin.p...@ubuntu.com> Wed, 07 Sep 2016 08:43:24 +0200 While python3-talloc-dev exists in Xenial (and only there) it still has no dependencies at all. $ reverse-depends --release=xenial python3-ldb-dev No reverse dependencies found I'd say we might drop python3-ldb-dev from Xenial as well, but since it is released it will never fully drop - unsure what to do about that. Maybe make it an empty package? Also Doko might have had very specific reasons to add it we just don't know. So I subscribe him for his general expertise on what to do as well as his specific expertise on this case and why it was added in the first place. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1614936 Title: package python3-ldb-dev (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/pyldb- util.pc', which is also in package python-ldb-dev 2:1.1.24-1ubuntu3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ldb/+bug/1614936/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
