package gnome-session reopen 340765 ! found 340765 2.12.0-3 tags 340765 - experimental thanks
Package: gnome-session Version: 2.12.0-3 Followup-For: Bug #340765 I still got this bug when upgrading with aptitude from 2.10.0-8 to 2.12.0-3 in unstable today. When preparing the upgrade in the ncurses UI of aptitude, I purged desktop-base because it's now only recommended instead of depended. Then when performing the upgrade, I got the same error message of: update-alternatives: unable to make /usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-splash.dpkg-tmp a symlink to /etc/alternatives/desktop-splash: No such file or directory And gnome-session is left unpacked but not configured. Running "dpkg --configure --pending" again gives the same error. So I installed desktop-base again, and now gnome-session is successfully configured. Maybe gnome-session should still depend on desktop-base?
