Subject: libogre: fails to install because of Package dependency Package: libogre Version: libogre-dev Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
*** Please type your report below this line *** I am unable to install ogre on my machine(debian unstable) because i am getting a package dependency issue.It appears that the present version of libogre-dev depends on an onl version of libopenexr-dev. This package cannot be downgraded because almost all the kde applications depend on it. When i perform an apt-get install libogre-dev i get the following error: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libogre-dev: Depends: libogre5 (= 1.0.5-1) but it is not going to be installed Depends: libopenexr-dev but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages Also, when i do a complete install of all the ogre files including dependencies saying: apt-get install libogre-dev libcegui-mk2-dev libcegui-mk2-doc ogre-doc ogre-tools ogre-plugins-cgprogrammanager blender-ogrexml ogre-plugins-cgprogrammanager: Depends: libdevil1 but it is not installable Depends: libogre5 but it is not going to be installed ogre-tools: Depends: libogre5 but it is not going to be installed Also, creating a highlevel virtual package which installs ogre completely will be much better than the present system because there are lots of variations of what needs to be installed on the ogre forums. I have posted this on the forum but not much attention has been given to the issue. -Suman -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1)
