severity 526045 important retitle 526045 while a testable depends path exists, another untestable is choosen which results in a false positive #justification: produces false positives
Hi, http://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/python-kde4-dev_4:4.2.2-3.log shows failures due to failures in http://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/shared-mime-info_0.60-2.log Checking rdepends of python-kde4-dev gives: aptitude why python-kde shared-mime-info p python-kde4-dev Depends python-qt4 (>= 4.4.4) p python-qt4 Depends python2.5 (>= 2.5) iB python2.5 Depends libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8f-5) i libssl0.9.8 Depends debconf (>= 0.5) | debconf-2.0 p cdebconf Provides debconf-2.0 p cdebconf Depends libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.8.0) i libgtk2.0-0 Depends shared-mime-info debconf is in the state essential/required, so python-kde4-dev appears ready to be tested. Then, apt-get chooses to install cdebconf, which is in the state dependency-failed-testing... and so we get the false-positive in python-kde4-dev. I currently have no idea how to resolv this :-/ The other issue mentioned in this bug report, that some packages show up in http://piuparts.debian.org/sid/state-$foo.html several times is easy to resolve: PackagesDB.get_packages_in_state() returns each provided package too, so thats what cause this problem at three different places in piuparts-reports. I expect to fix this issue soon and so this shouldnt be concern of this bugreport. regards, Holger
