Package: git Version: 1:2.28.0-1 Severity: normal File: git Dear Maintainer,
Trying to install git on my Debian testing system failed due to unmet dependencies. git seems to strictly depend on git-man git-man >> 1:2.28.0 but testing only contains 2.29.2-1 which leads to an impossible installation. Example : $ env LANG=C sudo apt install git Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: git : Depends: git-man (< 1:2.28.0-.) but 1:2.29.2-1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. $ env LANG=C apt policy git-man git-man: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1:2.29.2-1 Version table: 1:2.29.2+next.20201030-1 1 1 https://mirror.as35701.net/debian experimental/main amd64 Packages 1:2.29.2-1 990 990 https://mirror.as35701.net/debian testing/main amd64 Packages 500 https://mirror.as35701.net/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages Regards, Jean-Marc -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.9.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=fr_BE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_BE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr_BE:fr Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages git depends on: pn git-man <none> ii libc6 2.31-5 ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.72.0-1 pn liberror-perl <none> ii libexpat1 2.2.10-1 ii libpcre2-8-0 10.34-7 ii perl 5.32.0-5 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-2 Versions of packages git recommends: ii ca-certificates 20200601 ii less 551-2 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:8.4p1-3 ii patch 2.7.6-6 Versions of packages git suggests: ii gettext-base 0.19.8.1-10 pn git-cvs <none> pn git-daemon-run | git-daemon-sysvinit <none> pn git-doc <none> pn git-el <none> pn git-email <none> pn git-gui <none> pn git-mediawiki <none> pn git-svn <none> pn gitk <none> pn gitweb <none>
