Source: libvtk5-dev Version: 5.8.0-14.1 Severity: important apt-get install libvtk5-dev in a mips porterbox unstable chroot fails:
------------- #apt-get install libvtk5-dev Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information... Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libvtk5-dev : Depends: mpi-default-dev but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Command apt-get install -- libvtk5-dev exited with exit code 1. -------------- This prevents packages which build-dep on libvtk5 from building on this arch, such as: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=therion&suite=sid which is how I noticed the issue. The problem seems to be that libvtk5-dev depends on: mpi-default-dev -> libmpich2-dev -> libmpich-dev -> libmpich10 whilst libvtk5.8 depends on: libmpich2-3 and libmpich2-3 conflicts with libmpich10 mips and amd64 libvtk5.8 deps are different. Is that right?: On mips: $ apt-cache show libvtk5.8 Depends: libavcodec54 (>= 6:9.1-1) | libavcodec-extra-54 (>= 6:9.8), libavformat54 (>= 6:9.1-1), libavutil52 (>= 6:9.1-1), li bc6 (>= 2.7), libexpat1 (>= 2.0.1), libfreetype6 (>= 2.2.1), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.2.1), libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1, libgl2ps0, libjp eg8 (>= 8c), libmpich2-3, libmysqlclient18 (>= 5.5.24+dfsg-1), libnetcdfc++4, libnetcdfc7, libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4), libpq5, libqtcore4 (>= 4:4.6.1), libqtgui4 (>= 4:4.5.3), libsqlite3-0 (>= 3.5.9), libstdc++6 (>= 4.6), libswscale2 (>= 6:9.1-1), libt iff4 (>> 3.9.5-3~), libx11-6, libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), libxt6, zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.3.3) On amd64: $ apt-cache show libvtk5.8 $ Depends: libavcodec54 (>= 6:9.1-1) | libavcodec-extra-54 (>= 6:9.8), libavformat54 (>= 6:9.1-1), libavutil52 (>= 6:9.1-1), libc6 (>= 2.14), libexpat1 (>= 2.0.1), libfreetype6 (>= 2.2.1), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1, libgl2ps0, li bjpeg8 (>= 8c), libmysqlclient18 (>= 5.5.24+dfsg-1), libnetcdfc++4, libnetcdfc7, libopenmpi1.6, libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4), lib pq5, libqtcore4 (>= 4:4.6.1), libqtgui4 (>= 4:4.5.3), libsqlite3-0 (>= 3.5.9), libstdc++6 (>= 4.6), libswscale2 (>= 6:9.1-1), libtiff4 (>> 3.9.5-3~), libx11-6, libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), libxt6, zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.3.3) I don't understand what has happened here, and whether this is actually an mpich or a vtk problem, but it's quite serious. I presume it is something to do with the transition from mpich2 to mpich that seems to be underway. It would appear to be stopping anything build-depping on vtk from building on mips and thus from migrating to testing. Do you know how to fix this? I'll try a rebuild on the porterbox and see if this magically sorts itself out in which case a BINNMU should do the trick. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: mips (mips64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-octeon (SMP w/16 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
