Package: ruby Version: 1:2.1.5+deb8u1 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts Control: affects -1 ruby-activesupport-2.3
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed that the transitional package ruby-activesupport-2.3 is no longer installable in jessie. Transitional packages must be installable, otherwise they are pointless. This is a regression introduced in the fix for #784336 (1:2.1.5+deb8u1) Probably the Conflicts should have been versioned: Conflicts: ruby-activesupport-2.3 (<< 2:4) The ruby-activesupport-2.3 package was reintroduced as a transitinal one to fix #768850, i.e. to get rid of the ruby-*-2.3 and ruby-*-3.2 stacks. Unfortunately this did not cover all the upgrade paths. >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): 0m41.9s DEBUG: Starting command: ['chroot', '/tmp/piupartss/tmpPOtlWM', 'apt-get', '-y', 'install', 'ruby-activesupport-2.3=2:4.1.8-1'] 0m42.6s DUMP: Reading package lists...
