Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.0-3
Severity: normal
Hello,
I had installed a polygen (1.0.6-9) package which depends on
ocaml-base-nox-3.08.3 (provided by ocaml-base-nox 3.08.3-8). The 2nd one
has been installed too and it has been marked as automagically installed.
Recently new ocaml-base-nox (3.09.0-1) has been uploaded into archive.
It provides name ocaml-base-nox-3.09.0 instead of ocaml-base-nox-3.08.3
and polygen has a broken dependency.
aptitude has marked ocaml-base-nox 3.09.0-1 to remove saying:
[quote]
ocaml-base-nox was installed automatically; it is being removed because
all of the packages which depend upon it are being removed:
The following packages depend on ocaml-base-nox and will be broken by its
removal:
* polygen depends on ocaml-base-nox-3.08.3 (provided by ocaml-base-nox
3.08.3-8)
[/quote]
and finally aptitude suggests only one solution: remove albo polygen
packages.
If I remove an auto mark from ocaml-base-nox another solution appears:
keep ocaml-base-nox at current version.
The question is: it is possible to have in this case two solutions
even if ocaml-base-nox is marked as an auto?
Regards
Artur
