Package: python2.3 Version: 2.3.5-15 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
I installed etch using the daily netinst snapshot and a retarded mirror, and now i'm syncing with the recent packages. Python 2.4 refuses to install itself because some python-gnome librairies complain about pyversions missing. Maybe it's the gnome python thing that's broken, I don't know. Maybe the problem is with 2.4 too... Here is the nasty apt output: Preparing to replace python 2.3.5-5 (using .../python_2.4.3-11_all.deb) ... running python pre-rtupdate hooks for python2.4... /usr/share/python/runtime.d/python-gnome2.rtupdate: line 4: pyversions: command not found error running python pre-rtupdate hook python-gnome2 running python failed-pre-rtupdate hook python-gnome2 /usr/share/python/runtime.d/python-gnome2.rtupdate: line 4: pyversions: command not found dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python_2.4.3-11_all.deb (--unpack): subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 127 dpkg: considering removing python in favour of python-minimal ... dpkg: no, cannot remove python (--auto-deconfigure will help): python-apt depends on python (>= 2.3) python is to be removed. dpkg: regarding .../python-minimal_2.4.3-11_all.deb containing python-minimal: python-minimal conflicts with python (<= 2.4-1) python (version 2.3.5-5) is installed. dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python-minimal_2.4.3-11_all.deb (--unpack): conflicting packages - not installing python-minimal Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/python_2.4.3-11_all.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/python-minimal_2.4.3-11_all.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I fixed this with a nasty --force: dpkg --force-all -i /var/cache/apt/archives/python-minimal_2.4.3-11_all.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/python_2.4.3-11_all.deb Any idea? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages python2.3 depends on: ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.3-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdb4.3 4.3.29-6 Berkeley v4.3 Database Libraries [ ii libncurses5 5.5-2 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.1-7 GNU readline and history libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8b-2 SSL shared libraries ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages python2.3 recommends: pn python2.3-cjkcodecs | python2 <none> (no description available) pn python2.3-cjkcodecs | python2 <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
