Package: gnucash Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Trying to install gnucash, from the latest unstable on http://debian.csail.mit.edu/debian-amd64/debian/. apt-get fails with two dependencies, slib and guile-1.6. Installing one of them causes the other one to be uninstalled. A transcript from installation attempt follows:

Done Building dependency tree... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: gnucash: Depends: slib (>= 3a1-2) but it is not going to be installed Depends: guile-1.6-slib but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- nakatomi:~# apt-cache show slib Package: slib Priority: optional Section: devel Installed-Size: 3808 Maintainer: Thomas Bushnell, BSG <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: all Version: 3a2-2 Conflicts: libguile9 (<= 1:1.4-26), guile-1.6-libs (<= 1.6.7-1.1) Filename: pool/main/s/slib/slib_3a2-2_all.deb Size: 840504 MD5sum: ca4730d83681e0ab7f48ada96ba27e2a Description: Portable Scheme library SLIB is a portable scheme library meant to provide compatibility and utility functions for all standard scheme implementations.
