Package: apt Version: 0.6.43 Severity: normal
Hi, I've rebuilt the evolution-plugins package against DBUS from experimental, and this seems to confuse apt quite a bit: # echo 'evolution-plugins hold' | dpkg --set-selections # dpkg -l evolution-plugins Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-====================-====================-======================================================== hi evolution-plugins 2.4.1-3 All bundled plugins for Evolution # apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
