Package: libqtcore4 Version: 4:4.8.5+dfsg-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
The recent update for libqtcore4 (version 4:4.8.5+dfsg-1) brings in a new dependency on qtcore4-l10n, which appears to be an arch-independent package, however, on multiarch systems, the i386 package does not recognize the availability of qtcore4-l10n, and therefore cannot be upgraded. This in turn prevents the amd64 package from being updated (unless one is willing to remove the i386 packages and any packages depending on them, ie. Skype), as well as preventing all of the packages depending on libqtcore4 from being updated. I hope you can find a way to remedy this situation, for the time being I will have to hold off on these updates, since I would prefer to keep Skype installed. P.S. A similar issue occurred when the Pango libraries underwent a packaging change and the original libpango1.0-0 package was made into an arch-independent transitional package, ultimately this did not work (the i386 packages would not recognize that the arch-independent transitional package existed and was installed) and the package was split into separate arch-specific packages again. This may, unfortunately, be the route you have to take, unless someone can figure out why i386 packages seem to be unable to recognize arch- independent dependencies on multiarch systems. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers experimental APT policy: (650, 'experimental'), (650, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.10-rc7-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
