Package: python3-docutils Version: 0.16+dfsg-3 Severity: serious Tags: patch User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed some upgrade paths from buster to
bullseye failing because apt did not find a valid upgrade path.
This commonly happens with 'apt-get upgrade' (which fails), followed by
'apt-get dist-upgrade'.
>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):
[...]

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:
python3-docutils : Depends: docutils-common (= 0.16+dfsg-3) but 0.14+dfsg-4
is to be installed
This can be fixed by making the Breaks against the removed python-docutils
explicit in python3-docutils. (There is currently an implicit one due to
the versioned dependency of both packages on docutils-common, but that
is not sufficient for apt to find a valid solution in all cases.)
The attached patch is against 8e8798a3fd59a464691bea4dd7a789d7bb7c95ba,
i.e. to be applied after the 4 metadata update commits (that I consider
suitable for bullseye) following debian/0.16+dfsg-3 and committed before
the new upstream was merged.
cheers,
Andreas

Subject: [PATCH] python3-docutils: add explicit Breaks: python-docutils
the existing implicit Breaks via the versioned dependency on
docutils-common is not sufficient for all upgrade paths
