Thanks Benjamin - I very much appreciate that you took the time to reply. Just so I'm clear on what's going on, following the link you provided, it seems that eclipse 3.5.2-5 is waiting to build for AMD64 because it is dependent on the libhamcrest-java library (>= 1.1-8~). However, from the libhamcrest-java page ( https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /libhamcrest-java/1.1-8 ), it appears that the libhamcrest-java package (which you uploaded the current version two days ago) will only ever be built for the i386 architecture.
That suggests to me that AMD64 users should just download eclipse from the web and not wait for ubuntu's package. Is that the best way to proceed, or have I completely misunderstood what's going on? -- [maverick] Package "eclipse" has broken dependencies. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/603656 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
