Package: libglib1.2 Version: 1.2.10-17 Severity: normal This is an interdependency problem that I don't know is caused by libglib1.2, but I chose this because it is somewhere in the middle.
I did an upgrade, and in the process my window manager, fvwm, was uninstalled. When I try to install fvwm, I get: # apt-get install fvwm/testing Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Selected version 1:2.5.21-1 (Debian:testing) for fvwm Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: fvwm: Depends: libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: libstroke0 (>= 0.5.1) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages When I try to install libstroke0 I get: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libstroke0: Depends: libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages When I uninstall libglib1.2ldbl and install libglib1.2, several other things are uninstalled, including xmms, and when I try to install fvwm, I get: # apt-get install fvwm/testing Reading package lists...
