Dear Maintainer, *** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? *** End of the template - remove these lines *** Running aptitude install (or remove, etc.) with pattern arguments selects all architectures and will typically result in conflicts. In contrast, apt-get only selects a single architecture (the most preferred) for each package. -- $ aptitude install -s '?name(^tf$)' The following NEW packages will be installed: libgpm2:amd64{a} libncurses5:amd64{a} libtinfo5:amd64{a} tf{b} tf:amd64{b} zlib1g:amd64{a} The following packages will be upgraded: libncurses5 libtinfo5 zlib1g The following packages are RECOMMENDED but will NOT be installed: libgpm2 3 packages upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 179 not upgraded. Need to get 1,263 kB/1,523 kB of archives. After unpacking 2,598 kB will be used. The following packages have unmet dependencies: tf:amd64 : Conflicts: tf but 1:4.0s1-17 is to be installed. tf : Conflicts: tf:amd64 but 1:4.0s1-17 is to be installed. libncursesw5 : Depends: libtinfo5 (= 5.9-6) but 5.9-10 is to be installed. C-c C-c $ apt-get install -s ^tf$ NOTE: This is only a simulation! apt-get needs root privileges for real execution. Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated, so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation! Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Note, selecting 'tf' for regex '^tf$' The following NEW packages will be installed: tf 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 201 not upgraded. -- Of course, one can insert appropriate ?architecture (~r) terms to restrict the set, but this is counter-intuitive in the typical use-case of installing a package for a single architecture only, and becomes unwieldy with more complex queries. The default command line behaviour could be adjusted, such that pattern arguments behaive similar to regex arguments with apt-get. -- Package-specific info: Terminal: dumb $DISPLAY is set. which aptitude: /usr/bin/aptitude aptitude version information: aptitude 0.6.6 compiled at Apr 17 2012 05:16:17 Compiler: g++ 4.6.3 Compiled against: apt version 4.12.0 NCurses version 5.9 libsigc++ version: 2.2.10 Ept support enabled.
