Package: dmidecode Version: 2.7-2 Severity: normal dmidecode 2.6-1 used to depend on libc6 version 2.3.2*, but dmidecode 2.7 depends on libc6 2.3.5*. Debian stable currently has libc6 2.3.2*, so if a user wants to install dmidecode 2.7, they have to fiddle around with the deb package. I suggest dmidecode's libc6 dependency be changed to version libc6 >= 2.3.2.ds1-22.
My system information isn't really relevant in this case, I was installing dmidecode 2.7 on a Xandros (based on Debian sarge), and had this libc6 dependency problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_CA, LC_CTYPE=en_CA (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages dmidecode depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an dmidecode recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
