"puredata" is a real package (though it only consists of dependencies on the various puredata-* packages), so it's not 'provided' by puredata-core. "pd" is a virtual package, provided by "puredata-core". neither "puredata" nor "puredata-core" conflict with "pd". > > Upon configuring, dpkg then reported: > >> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of pd-pdp: >> pd-pdp depends on puredata; however: >> Package puredata is not installed. >> dpkg: error processing pd-pdp (--configure): >> dependency problems - leaving unconfigured > > So -- puredata-core does not provide puredata, but does provide pd. correct. > puredata conflicts with pd, so cannot install. but i cannot reproduce this. > This then prevents packages depending on > puredata from installing. i can do this without problems: # apt-get remove --purge --auto-remove '^pd-.*$' '^puredata-.*$' # apt-get install pd-pdp which will install the entire "puredata" suite (puredata, puredata-core, puredata-gui,...) and pd-pdp. > I will also file a report asking that pd-pdp depend on "pd | puredata-core" > instead, that's a good idea. fgmasdr IOhannes -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk7vJLwACgkQkX2Xpv6ydvTqwACg56w948oTh4mXHNHMmxNWucRF yrQAn1zZscNTOV1r26HcDpl5cSzcHg3K =VBEX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
