--- Begin Message ---Package: telegram-desktop Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable I am unable to install this package. For some reason it got uninstalled on Saturday after Buster's release and when I try to install it, apt claims that it depends on qtbase-abi-5-11-3. As the maintainer certaily knows, that's a metapackage that is provided by libqt5core5a, which *is* installed on my system. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (800, 'experimental'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.utf8), LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.utf8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages telegram-desktop depends on: ii libavcodec58 7:4.1.3-1 ii libavformat58 7:4.1.3-1 ii libavutil56 7:4.1.3-1 ii libc6 2.28-10 ii libgcc1 1:9.1.0-7 ii libglib2.0-0 2.61.1-1 ii liblzma5 5.2.4-1 ii libminizip1 1.1-8+b1 ii libopenal1 1:1.19.1-1 ii libopus0 1.3-1 ii libqt5core5a 5.12.4+dfsg-4 ii libqt5dbus5 5.12.4+dfsg-4 ii libqt5gui5 5.12.4+dfsg-4 ii libqt5network5 5.12.4+dfsg-4 ii libqt5widgets5 5.12.4+dfsg-4 ii libssl1.1 1.1.1c-1 ii libstdc++6 9.1.0-7 ii libswresample3 7:4.1.3-1 ii libswscale5 7:4.1.3-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.7-1 ii libxxhash0 0.7.0-1 ii qt5-image-formats-plugins 5.12.4-1 pn qtbase-abi-5-11-3 <none> ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 Versions of packages telegram-desktop recommends: ii fonts-open-sans 1.11-1 *** /home/fmneto/temp.txt magi: /home/fmneto#> sudo apt install telegram-desktop Reading package lists...
