Package: sun-java6-jre Version: 6-16-1 Severity: normal Broken packages. Similar to bug reported in January. Maybe this version needs uploading?
Going forward it would be nice to have a better error message instead of "broken packages" followed by a nondescript circular reference. Something like this: Package 'x' could not be installed because it was not found on the server. This is common with the unstable or experimental repositories. If not resolved within 24hrs please file a bug report. Or even better, simply build in a safeguard to prevent this error.
