Package: libmpfi-dev Version: 1.5.1+ds-1 Severity: grave Tags: sid Justification: renders package unusable User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package is no longer installable in sid: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libmpfi-dev : Depends: libmpfi0-dev (>= 1.5.1+ds-1) but it is not going to be installed This is caused by the Conflicts in libmpfi0-dev: Package: libmpfi0-dev Source: mpfi Version: 1.5.1+ds-1 Replaces: libmpfi-dev (<= 1.5.1-3) Provides: libmpfi-dev Depends: libmpfi0 (= 1.5.1+ds-1), libmpfi0-dev-common (= 1.5.1+ds-1), libmpfr-dev, libgmp-dev Conflicts: libmpfi-dev Breaks: libmpfi-dev (<= 1.5.1-3) The transitional package being uninstallable will prevent migration to testing. Please don't drop the transitional package (because upgrades won't automatically switch from a real package to a virtual one) but drop the Conflicts for now. For stretch+1 you can drop the transitional package and switch to unversioned Breaks+Replaces (or Conflicts+Replaces) to ensure the old transitional one gets removed upon upgrades. Cheers, Andreas PS: Is it really necessary to switch from an unversioned -dev package to a versioned one? -- debian-science-maintainers mailing list debian-science-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/debian-science-maintainers
