Bug ID: 360444 Summary: Actually it's Version 4.14.2 ... Self Mutilating -- Self Destruct Product: kde Version: 4.14.1 Platform: Debian stable OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org Reporter: rjbrad...@gmail.com 2016.03.20 in Konsole as root for some apt - time updating and such... (Yes I know APT is not a KDE program but just read this anyway to see if it is related.) apt comes back with this absurdity from whence I wonder how it came to this conclusion if not from KDE on a self destruct mission then where would apt be getting this from and where then should I report this?: # apt-get install wodim Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done wodim is already the newest version. wodim set to manually installed.

Now that's a whole bunch of Kstuff and Plasma things that I really don't want to remove .... but my quick draw button pushing finger got the better of me and Y'd them into oblivion anyway cuz it trusts Apt to be smart that way ya know. I've Never in my 16 years of Linux-Life ever seen this bad package management fluke in any distro and surely did not expect to see it pop up in Debian (jessie). So... KDE or not to KDE? _____________________________________ Continued... # apt-get install dragonplayer dvd+rw-tools akregator apper apper-data ark cdrdao gwenview hyphen-en-us iputils-arping juk k3b k3b-data kate kcalc kmix kopete kscreensaver ksnapshot kwalletmanager Reading package lists...
