Package: libsasl2-3
Version: 2.1.26
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
libsasl2-3 is uninstallable. After noticing some errors on running
'aptitude -t experimental upgrade' I ran 'aptitude -f install' to find
these errors:-

The following NEW packages will be installed:
libsasl2-3{a}
The following partially installed packages will be configured:
libsasl2-modules
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 8 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/121 kB of archives. After unpacking 241 kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]

*** End of the template - remove these lines ***
You may ignore the first line - I tries quite a few things,
(eg:- " .... install libsasl2-3" and removing libsasl2-2, etc;
one of the dependency resolving solutions was to retain libsasl2-2
and install 2-3; but of course, that will not work.
I upgrade (experimental), as frequently as twice a week.
