Package: iceweasel
Version: 39.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I'm tracking stable for most of my packages but am using experimental for
Iceweasel since it's the only way to get the latest version.
I'm currently running Iceweasel 39.0-1 and wanted to upgrade to 39.0.3-1,
mostly to get the fix for CVE-2015-4495.
However, when trying to upgrade it with aptitude, I get the following:
"
The following packages will be upgraded:
iceweasel{b}
1 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 38.9 MB of archives. After unpacking 824 kB will be freed.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
iceweasel : Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 5.2) but 4.9.2-10 is installed.
"
aptitude then proposes solutions ranging from ignoring the update, downgrading
Iceweasel, or upgrading libstdc++6 which would then break dozens of currently
installed packages.
I understand my setup is prone to this kind of issue, due to tracking multiple
branches. However, I don't really understand why that dependency on a newer
version of libstdc++6 suddenly appeared, especially considering this is a minor
update.
Would it be possible to revert the dependency back to libstdc++6 >= 4.9?
