Package: libpolkit-qt5-1-1 Version: 0.112.0-5 Severity: serious Tags: newcomer Justification: Policy 7.2
libpolkit-qt5-1-1 has a hard dependency on libpam-systemd. Violates "Depends: This declares an absolute dependcy... The Depends field should be used if the depended-on package is required for the depending package to provide a significant amount of functionality." While this library appears to not do much except fail if libpam-systemd is missing, this is a requried library for KDE applications, and they are all resilient against this scenario. As a result, the dependency is effectively false. Disclaimer: I think KDE session itself has a real dependency on systemd, but this is not the appropriate place to put the dependnecy as KDE applications don't actually depend on KDE session. Fix: change Depends: libpam-systemd to Recommends: libpam-systemd or maybe remove altogether -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages libpolkit-qt5-1-1 depends on: ii libc6 2.28-7 ii libgcc1 1:8.2.0-20 ii libglib2.0-0 2.58.3-1 ii libpam-systemd-apt-holepunch [libpam-systemd] 1 ii libpolkit-agent-1-0 0.105-25 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-25 ii libqt5core5a 5.11.3+dfsg-5 ii libqt5dbus5 5.11.3+dfsg-5 ii libqt5gui5 5.11.3+dfsg-5 ii libqt5widgets5 5.11.3+dfsg-5 ii libstdc++6 8.2.0-20 libpolkit-qt5-1-1 recommends no packages. libpolkit-qt5-1-1 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
