clone 610968 -1 reassign -1 dpkg thanks Hi peoples.
This upgrade (and similar ones) is kind of having issues. After debugging it with David Kalnischkies and Julien Cristau, we found out that apt is having quite some issues with the Breaks: konqueror in dpkg. Basically, udev wanst a new util-linux, which wants a new dpkg, which breaks konqueror. Apt's best solution here seems to be a half-ass upgrade of varous KDE related things, and removing the rest. After removing the Breaks: konqueror in dpkg, the result of apt-get install udev looks kind of sane. apt-get -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=1 install udev Reading package lists...

Need to get 33.1MB of archives. After this operation, 18.8MB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? So please, roll a dpkg without that breaks. This is ack'ed by Julien on irc. The worst case is that info browsing with konqueror is broken for people with partial upgrades. The alternative is a quite hosed upgrade. The former is preferred. /Sune On Monday 24 January 2011 15:18:36 Stuart Prescott wrote: > Package: upgrade-reports > Severity: normal > > Upgrading a kde installation from lenny->squeeze specifically to test the > latest set of kde metapackages that were added back to the archive to make > this upgrade easier, I find that when following the release notes, kde > still ends up being ripped out. > > The upgrade procedure was rigorously "by the book".
