Instead of patching apt, wouldn't it be easier to ship a script like do- release-upgrade (eg. do-lts-upgrade --component=xorg --component=linux --target=quantal) which does all the necessary magic? It could even do something like
1. trigger package downloads only 2. force-remove the old packages 3. install the new packages That would circumvent any solver and possible brakages due to that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-lts-quantal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1134492 Title: xserver-xorg-lts-quantal breaks Kubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1134492/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
