Package: gdb-doc Version: 7.6.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? I run testing and have both gdb and gdb-doc installed. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I am attempting to upgrade all packages to the latest version in testing/jessie. * What was the outcome of this action? Pressing plus on the package in Aptitude puts these messages in the bottom frame: * gdb-doc breaks gdb (< 7.7) * gdb-doc breaks gdbserver (< 7.7) * What outcome did you expect instead? For this version of gdb-doc to not be available in testing until it can be installed alongside the gdb and gdbserver available. This seems to sum up the problem: % rmadison -s jessie gdb-doc gdb gdb | 7.6.2-1.1 | jessie | source gdb | 7.6.2-1.1+b1 | jessie | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390x gdb-doc | 7.7.1-1 | jessie/non-free | source, all The cause of it could of course be some bug in the testing migration logic that keeps gdb from migrating but it really does not intuitively seem correct that gdb-doc replaces older versions of gdb and gdbserver and does not recommend or suggest the corresponding version of gdb. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- no debconf information Best regards /Ulrik Haugen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
