It is suitable for a wide variety of word processing tasks, and is extensible with a variety of plugins. This package contains the shared library, enabling other applications to integrate AbiWord functionality. Homepage: http://www.abisource.com/ Tags: role::shared-lib Now the problem is two of the library dependant are no longer in the archive due to libcogl transition. See #709098 for details. What needs to be changed is from libcogl-pango0 (>= 1.7.4), libcogl9 (>= 1.7.4) to libcogl-pango12 and libcogl12. This is what happens if I try to install the package :- $ sudo aptitude install abiword=3.0.0~svn20130523-1 abiword-common=3.0.0~svn20130523-1 libabiword-3.0 abiword-plugin-grammar=3.0.0~svn20130523-1 abiword-plugin-mathview=3.0.0~svn20130523-1 The following NEW packages will be installed: abiword abiword-common abiword-plugin-grammar abiword-plugin-mathview libabiword-3.0{b} libgdome2-0{a} libgdome2-cpp-smart0c2a{a} libgoffice-0.10-10{a} libgoffice-0.10-10-common{a} libgtkmathview0c2a{a} liblink-grammar4{a} libloudmouth1-0{a} libots0{a} link-grammar-dictionaries-en{a} poppler-utils{a} 0 packages upgraded, 15 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded. Need to get 12.8 MB of archives. After unpacking 46.7 MB will be used. The following packages have unmet dependencies: libabiword-3.0 : Depends: libcogl-pango0 (>= 1.7.4) which is a virtual package. Depends: libcogl9 (>= 1.7.4) which is a virtual package. Depends: libwv-1.2-4 (>= 1.2.9) but it is not going to be installed. The following actions will resolve these dependencies: Keep the following packages at their current version: 1) abiword [Not Installed] 2) abiword-plugin-grammar [Not Installed] 3) abiword-plugin-mathview [Not Installed] 4) libabiword-3.0 [Not Installed] Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q So as can be seen a correction in dependancy is warranted if this package be used by many people. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental'), (1, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.10-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IN, LC_CTYPE=en_IN (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Looking forward to the upload. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
