Package: python-ipalib Version: 4.7.1-3 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
I've just updated an IPA client to buster and installed freeipa-client from SID. After the update I looked for transitional packages and have these: # dpkg -l | grep dummy ii gnupg-agent 2.2.12-1 all GNU privacy guard - cryptographic agent (dummy transitional package) ii gnupg2 2.2.12-1 all GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement (dummy transitional package) When I try to remove these apt will remove IPA client: # LANG=C apt purge gnupg2 gnupg-agent Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: freeipa-client* gnupg-agent* gnupg2* python-ipaclient* python-ipalib* 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 5 to remove and 0 not upgraded. After this operation, 6996 kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] When I look at the packages gnupg-agent we get the hint: This is a dummy transitional package; please use gpg-agent instead. I think we can change the depends and be done. gnupg2 has this: This is a dummy transitional package that provides symlinks from gpg2 to gpg. Do we use the gpg2 command? I have no idea... Thanks for the updated packages - I think the client is ready for buster. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages python-ipalib depends on: ii freeipa-common 4.7.1-3 ii gnupg-agent 2.2.12-1 ii gnupg2 2.2.12-1 ii gpg-agent [gnupg-agent] 2.2.12-1 ii keyutils 1.5.9-9.3 ii python 2.7.15-3 ii python-cffi 1.11.5-3 ii python-cryptography 2.3-1 ii python-dbus 1.2.8-2+b3 ii python-dnspython 1.16.0-1 ii python-gssapi 1.4.1-1+b1 ii python-jwcrypto 0.4.2-1 ii python-ldap 3.1.0-2 ii python-libipa-hbac 1.16.3-3 ii python-lxml 4.2.5-1 ii python-netaddr 0.7.19-1 ii python-netifaces 0.10.4-1+b1 ii python-nss 1.0.0-1+b2 ii python-pyasn1 0.4.2-3 ii python-pyasn1-modules 0.2.1-0.2 ii python-qrcode 6.0-1 ii python-requests 2.20.0-2 ii python-setuptools 40.6.2-1 ii python-six 1.12.0-1 ii python-usb 1.0.2-1 ii python-yubico 1.3.2-1.1 ii systemd 240-2 python-ipalib recommends no packages. python-ipalib suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
