Hi, I'm not sure this list is the right place, but before filing a bug report, i'd like to be sure.
I updated my Sid yesterday, and it removed some useful packages for me : digikam and gmic. Those two packages needs libopencv-imgcodecs3.2, which is not presently installable : # apt-get install libopencv-imgcodecs3.2 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: libopencv-imgcodecs3.2 : Depends: gdal-abi-2-4-0 Depends: libgdal20 (>= 2.0.1) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. If I try to install libgdal20 : # apt-get install libgdal20 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: libgdal20 : Depends: gdal-data (>= 2.4.3+dfsg-1) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Sid has libgdal26 : # dpkg -l |grep gdal ii gdal-bin 3.0.3+dfsg-1+b1 amd64 Geospatial Data Abstraction Library - Utility programs ii gdal-data 3.0.3+dfsg-1 all Geospatial Data Abstraction Library - Data files ii libgdal26 3.0.3+dfsg-1+b1 amd64 Geospatial Data Abstraction Library ii python3-gdal 3.0.3+dfsg-1+b1 amd64 Python 3 bindings to the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library But ligdal20 (in gdal 2.4.3+dfsg-1 it seems) is also available : # apt-cache policy libgdal20 libgdal20: Installed: (none) Candidate: 2.4.3+dfsg-1+b1 Version table: 2.4.3+dfsg-1+b1 980 980 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages 2.4.0+dfsg-1+b1 960 960 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian stable/main amd64 Packages # apt-cache policy gdal-data gdal-data: Installed: 3.0.3+dfsg-1 Candidate: 3.0.3+dfsg-1 Version table: 3.0.4~rc1+dfsg-1~exp1 -1 -1 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian experimental/main amd64 Packages -1 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian experimental/main i386 Packages *** 3.0.3+dfsg-1 980 970 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian testing/main amd64 Packages 970 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian testing/main i386 Packages 980 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages 980 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian sid/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.4.3+dfsg-1 980 980 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages 980 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian sid/main i386 Packages 2.4.0+dfsg-1 960 960 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian stable/main amd64 Packages 960 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian stable/main i386 Packages Downgrading gdal-data to 2.4.3+dfsg-1 (apt-get install gdal-data=2.4.3+dfsg-1 libgdal20) seems to solve the problem (as apt-get doesn't raises an error), but it removes qgis ! It seems to me that two versions of gdal are (partially) available in Sid and all packages did not switch to the new version. So, what should I do ? File a bug on libopencv-imgcodecs3.2 so that it depends on gdal 3.0.3 ? Regards, Sébastien
