Package: libx11-dev Version: catastrophic dependency problem Severity: important
I was trying to install the GNOME 2.10 garnome suite when I discovered that I did not yet have the X development libraries installed on my system. So I started dselect to get them. When I select libx11-dev, dselect gives me a report of dependency problems that breaks the whole desktop configuration, by wanting to deinstall libxkbui1, libxkbfile1, xbase-cient, libgksuui1.0, xprint-common, wine, gdm, xprint, wine-utils, python-2.3-common, and several more. This is serious, since it renders my laptop useless for all X development purposes. dselect screen copy of dependency problems: _* Opt libdevel xlibs-static X Window System client library development files _* Opt libdevel libxv-dev X Window System video extension library developme ** Opt libdevel libx11-dev X Window System protocol client library developme **- Opt libs libxkbui1 **- Opt libs libxkbfile1 _* Opt libdevel libxi-dev X Window System Input extension library developme **- Opt x11 xbase-client miscellaneous X clients **- Opt libs libgksuui1.0 a graphical fronted to su library **- Opt x11 xprint-commo Xprint - the X11 print system (configuration file **- Opt libs libgksu1.2-0 library providing su and sudo functionality **- Opt otherosf wine Windows Emulator (Binary Emulator) **- Opt gnome gdm GNOME Display Manager **- Opt admin gksu graphical frontend to su **- Opt x11 xprint Xprint - the X11 print system (binary) **- Opt otherosf wine-utils Windows Emulator (Utilities) **- Opt gnome gdm-themes Themes for the GNOME Display Manager **- Opt gnome gnome-sudo dumb package to provide smooth upgrade to gksu **- Opt libs python2.3-co alternative debconf configuration interface: core **- Opt x11 xprt-xprinto Xprint - the X11 print system (dummy) **- Opt python python-confi alternative debconf configuration interface: core -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11.7 Locale: LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-15, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO-8859-15 (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages libx11-dev depends on: ii libc6-dev [libc-dev] 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Development Librari ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext-dev 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System miscellaneous exte pn libxi-dev Not found. ii x-dev 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 X protocol development files pn xlibs-static-dev Not found. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
