Hi all, In the upcoming version of the `emacs-goodies-el' source package, I want the following to happen to these bianry packages:
`emacs-goodies-extra-el' -> removed and contents merged into `emacs-goodies-el' `debbugs-el' -> replaced by `debian-el' I did the following in the control file: Package: emacs-goodies-el Replaces: emacs-goodies-extra-el Conflicts: emacs-goodies-extra-el Provides: emacs-goodies-extra-el Package: debian-el Conflicts: debbugs-el Replaces: debbugs-el Provides: debbugs-el I created a Packages.gz file to test the upgrade to these and added an entry to it to sources.list. Here's what happens: # apt-get -u dist-upgrade Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Calculating Upgrade... Done The following packages have been kept back dpkg-dev-el emacs-goodies-el libsmpeg0 printtool rwho The following packages will be upgraded devscripts-el gnus-bonus-el So it's holding back the two affected packages. However, installing them explicitely works: # apt-get install dpkg-dev-el emacs-goodies-el Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done The following extra packages will be installed: debian-el The following packages will be REMOVED: debbugs-el emacs-goodies-extra-el The following NEW packages will be installed: debian-el The following packages will be upgraded dpkg-dev-el emacs-goodies-el 2 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 2 to remove and 5 not upgraded. Need to get 480kB of archives. After unpacking 73.7kB will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n Abort. Am I missing something?
