Hi, do you know why aptitude want to install and remove package from ncurses but not from command line?
My history: aptitude -> ncurses -> u -> U -> g To be freed 44 MB, To be downloaded 1795kB to be removed because there are not used any more --------------------------------------------------------------------------- libcurl3-gnutls libgdal1-1.5.0 ... libxerces-c28 To be removed because depends are broken: ---------------------------------------------------------------- gdal-ecw-src libgdal1-dev ... To be installed (why??? => suggest ==> Don't suggest in apt.conf): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- libonig2 libqdbm14 manpages-dev php5-suhosin # aptitude update # aptitude update Obj http://debian stable Release.gpg Obj http://debian stable/main Translation-es Obj http://debian.mcmillan.net.nz lenny Release.gpg Ign http://debian.mcmillan.net.nz lenny/awm Translation-es Ign http://debian stable/contrib Translation-es Obj http://debian.mcmillan.net.nz lenny Release Ign http://debian stable/non-free Translation-es Obj http://debian testing Release.gpg Ign http://debian.mcmillan.net.nz lenny/awm Packages/DiffIndex Obj http://debian testing/main Translation-es Obj http://debian.mcmillan.net.nz lenny/awm Packages Ign http://debian testing/contrib Translation-es Ign http://debian testing/non-free Translation-es Obj http://debian stable Release Obj http://debian testing Release Ign http://debian stable/main Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://debian stable/contrib Packages/DiffIndex Ign http://debian stable/non-free Packages/DiffIndex Obj http://debian testing/main Packages/DiffIndex Obj http://debian testing/contrib Packages/DiffIndex Obj http://debian testing/non-free Packages/DiffIndex Obj http://debian stable/main Packages Obj http://debian stable/contrib Packages Obj http://debian stable/non-free Packages Leyendo lista de paquetes...
