Package: apt Version: 1.1.5 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I was installing upgrades the other day and everything appeared to work correctly. Then I went to manually install a package and `apt` said that there were missing dependencies and I needed to run `apt-get install -f` to fix them. I did this, but the problem persisted. Digging into it more, I found that `evince` depends on `libevdocument3-4`. Both of these are installed according to `dpkg -l` and both are present in `/var/lib/dpkg/status` However, `apt-cache policy libevdocument3-4` said the file was not installed. After trying multiple things, I found that if I moved `libevdocument3-4` up next to `evince` in `/var/lib/dpkg/status`, then everything worked correctly. I just ran `apt-get upgrade` and now it is telling me: apt-get install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: gir1.2-gnomebluetooth-1.0 : Depends: libgnome-bluetooth13 (>= 3.12.0) but it is not installed gnome-bluetooth : Depends: libgnome-bluetooth13 (>= 3.12.0) but it is not installed gnome-control-center : Depends: libgnome-bluetooth13 (>= 3.12.0) but it is not installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f. So this seems to be a broader issue where if I fix one thing then another breaks. `libgnome-bluetooth13` is installed and present in `/var/lib/dpkg/status`. -- Wayne Rowcliffe -- Package-specific info: -- apt-config dump -- APT ""; APT::Architecture "amd64"; APT::Build-Essential ""; APT::Build-Essential:: "build-essential"; APT::Install-Recommends "1"; APT::Install-Suggests "0"; APT::Sandbox ""; APT::Sandbox::User "_apt"; APT::Authentication ""; APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM "true"; APT::NeverAutoRemove ""; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^firmware-linux.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-firmware$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-headers-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-headers-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-extra-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-extra-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-signed-image-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-signed-image-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-image-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-image-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-headers-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-headers-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach-image-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach-image-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-modules-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-modules-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-kernel-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-kernel-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-backports-modules-.*-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-backports-modules-.*-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-tools-4\.1\.0-2-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-tools-4\.2\.0-1-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^postgresql-"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages ""; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-headers"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-image-extra"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-signed-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "kfreebsd-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "kfreebsd-headers"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "gnumach-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: ".*-modules"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: ".*-kernel"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-backports-modules-.*"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-tools"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections ""; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "contrib/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "non-free/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "restricted/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "universe/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "multiverse/metapackages"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections ""; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "contrib/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "non-free/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "restricted/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "universe/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "multiverse/oldlibs"; APT::Update ""; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success ""; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success:: "/usr/bin/test -e /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.PackageKit.service && /usr/bin/test -S /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket && /usr/bin/gdbus call --system --dest org.freedesktop.PackageKit --object-path /org/freedesktop/PackageKit --timeout 4 --method org.freedesktop.PackageKit.StateHasChanged cache-update > /dev/null; /bin/echo > /dev/null"; APT::Architectures ""; APT::Architectures:: "amd64"; APT::Architectures:: "i386"; APT::Compressor ""; APT::Compressor::.
