Package: bluez Version: 4.94-3 Severity: important
Attempted upgrade using aptitude from 4.94-3 to 4.96-1 caused "oops". On reboot, aptitude demanded dpkg --configure -a but dpkg reports bluez in too damaged a state. Attempting to force installation retriggers "oops". Attempting to remove bluez causes system to offer to uninstall large parts of itself. Package state is therefore irresolvably inconsistent at present. Note that the problem is with 4.96-1 and not 4.94-3. Although reportbug says this is the installed version, dpkg/apt-get can no longer find this 4.94.3. Files under dpkg's status are for 4.94.3 but files in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ are for 4.96-1 and dpkg reports the package as half-configured or half-installed or in need of reinstallation... apt-cache policy bluez: Installed: 4.94-3 Candidate: 4.96-1 Version table: 4.96-1 990 http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian/ wheezy/main powerpc Packages 600 ftp://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian/ sid/main powerpc Packages 990 ftp://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian/ testing/main powerpc Packages *** 4.94-3 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status apt-cache show bluez: Package: bluez Version: 4.96-1 Installed-Size: 1828 Maintainer: Debian Bluetooth Maintainers <pkg-bluetooth-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: powerpc Replaces: bluez-audio (<= 3.36-3), bluez-input, bluez-network, bluez-serial, bluez-utils (<= 3.36-3), udev (<< 170-1) Depends: libbluetooth3 (>= 4.91), libc6 (>= 2.7), libcap-ng0, libdbus-1-3 (>= 1.1.1), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.28.0), libreadline6 (>= 6.0), libudev0 (>= 0.140), libusb-0.1-4 (>= 2:0.1.12), module-init-tools, udev (>= 170-1), lsb-base, dbus, python-gobject, python-dbus Conflicts: bluez-audio (<= 3.36-3), bluez-utils (<= 3.36-3) Breaks: udev (<< 170-1) Description: Bluetooth tools and daemons This package contains tools and system daemons for using Bluetooth devices. .

Homepage: http://www.bluez.org [But I cannot reinstall 4.94-3 because nothing can find the file even with appropriate snapshot sources listed in sources.list.] I could not capture the output of the "oops"s because the system was entirely unresponsive and nothing seems to have been logged. Following suggestions in the kernel documentation, however, I did try to take a photograph of my screen on the second "oops" and I can provide this if it might be of any use. (It is probably not a very good photograph as I don't have a great camera but it was taken with a camera rather than just a phone, say.) -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-powerpc Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages bluez depends on: ii dbus 1.4.14-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libbluetooth3 4.96-1 Library to use the BlueZ Linux Blu ii libc6 2.13-16 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcap-ng0 0.6.6-1 An alternate POSIX capabilities li ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.14-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libudev0 172-1 libudev shared library ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-19 userspace USB programming library ii lsb-base 3.2-27 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii module-init-tools 3.16-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii python-dbus 0.84.0-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii python-gobject 2.28.6-4 Python bindings for the GObject li ii udev 172-1 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo bluez recommends no packages. bluez suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
