This left me puzzling for a bit: $> sudo apt-get install dh-python ... The following packages have unmet dependencies: dh-python : Depends: python3 (>= 3.2.3-3~) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
$> apt-cache policy python3 python3: Installed: 3.2.3-7 Candidate: 3.3.2-3 Version table: 3.3.2-11 0 300 http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ experimental/main amd64 Packages 3.3.2-4 0 600 http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages 3.3.2-3 0 900 http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages *** 3.2.3-7 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.2.3-6 0 100 http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages $> dpkg --compare-versions 3.2.3-3~ lt 3.2.3-7 && echo "yes - yarik is sane" || echo "go to the doctor" yes - yarik is sane Until I have looked at apt-cache show: Replaces: python3 (<< 3.3.2-10~) Depends: python3 (>= 3.2.3-3~) Breaks: python3 (<< 3.3.2-10~) Probably it is also worth complaining against apt regarding the message, but may be Depends here could/should be boosted to the same version of python3? Do you think it would be feasible to have a backport of dh-python e.g. for wheezy with corresponding diverts avoiding conflicts here or indeed python3 (>= 3.2.3-3~) is required for some functionality (haven't looked inside)?
