Package: gambas3 Version: 3.8.4-2 Severity: serious User: [email protected] Usertags: piuparts
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'jessie'.
It installed fine in 'jessie', then the upgrade to 'stretch' fails and
the jessie version is kept installed rather than upgraded.
>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):
This is apt problemresolver output from the jessie->stretch upgrade.

So what happened here?
gambas3-gb-qt4 is installed in jessie and an upgradable candidate,
but gambas3-ide, which is also installed in jessie, now
Conflicts: gambas3-gb-qt4.
gambas3-gb-qt4 has a score of 12 (there are several rdepends) while the
gambas3-ide and gambas3 meta-packages only have rather low scores of
1 and 0, respectively. So gambas3-gb-qt4 wins and does not get removed.
So one ends up with the jessie versions of gambas3 and gambas3-ide still
installed while all other packages have been upgraded to the stretch
version.
Right now I have no suggestions how to solve this upgrade issue.
That Conflicts: gambas3-gb-qt4 is nasty. Is the gambas3-gb-qt4 package
still needed? Could it be converted into a transitional package?
cheers,
Andreas
