Package: debian-cd Version: 3.1.10 Severity: serious It seems we've had a bug designed into debian-cd ever since it started. The dependency sorting code in tools/sort_deps does not track versions of packages when considering if dependencies are met. For a long time, this has seemingly worked OK. However, in the recent wheezy d-i beta 2 build we generated discs that failed testing because of this. Specifically, the case that broke was libseed-gtk3-0:
$ apt-cache show libseed-gtk3-0 | less Package: libseed-gtk3-0 Source: seed Version: 3.2.0-1 Installed-Size: 834 Maintainer: Debian GNOME Maintainers <pkg-gnome-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.12.4), libc6 (>= 2.7), libcairo-gobject2 (>= 1.10.0), libcairo2 (>= 1.8.0), libdbus-1-3 (>= 1.0.2), libdbus-glib-1-2 (>= 0.78), libffi5 (>= 3.0.4), libfontconfig1 (>= 2.8.0), libfreetype6 (>= 2.2.1), libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0), libgirepository-1.0-1 (>= 0.9.2), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.24.0), libgmp10, libgtk-3-0 (>= 3.0.0), libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0 (>= 1.5.1), libmpfr4 (>= 3.1.0), libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0), libreadline6 (>= 6.0), libsqlite3-0 (>= 3.5.9), libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), gnome-js-common, gir1.2-glib-2.0, gir1.2-clutter-1.0, gir1.2-gstreamer-0.10 | libgstreamer0.10-0 (<< 0.10.25-3), gir1.2-gtk-3.0 The OR dependency gir1.2-gstreamer-0.10 | libgstreamer0.10-0 (<< 0.10.25-3) shows the problem: libgstreamer was already selected for inclusion, but at version 0.10.36-1. sort_deps accepted this as fulfilling the required dependencies for libseed-gtk3-0, leaving out gir1.2-gstreamer-0.10. Later on in testing, apt tried to install packages and could not install libseed-gtk3-0 -> brokenness. I already have most of the work done that is needed to fix this, but it also depends on a patch being accepted in apt-cache (#218995). -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages debian-cd depends on: ii apt 0.9.7.4 ii bc 1.06.95-2+b1 ii bzip2 1.0.6-4 ii cpp 4:4.7.1-1 ii curl 7.26.0-1 ii dctrl-tools [grep-dctrl] 2.22.2 ii dpkg-dev 1.16.8 ii genisoimage 9:1.1.11-2 pn libdigest-md5-perl <none> ii libdigest-sha-perl 5.71-1 ii libio-compress-perl [libcompress-zlib-perl] 2.052-1 ii lynx-cur 2.8.8dev.12-2 ii make 3.81-8.2 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.14.2-12 ii tofrodos 1.7.9.debian.1-1 ii xorriso 1.2.2-2 Versions of packages debian-cd recommends: ii hfsutils 3.2.6-11 ii netpbm 2:10.0-15+b1 ii syslinux-common 2:4.05+dfsg-6 debian-cd suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
