Hi list, I wanted to test cupt [1], and then I tried a full-upgrade.
aptitude is not capable to resolve dependencies, but cupt yes. Like cupt is very new, I would like to ask about why do you think this diff is here: # LANG=C aptitude full-upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Reading extended state information Initializing package states... Done The following packages are BROKEN: libempathy-gtk19 libempathy23 telepathy-mission-control-5 The following NEW packages will be installed: empathy-doc{a} geoclue{a} geoclue-hostip{a} geoclue-localnet{a} geoclue-manual{a} geoclue-yahoo{a} libchamplain-0.4-0{a} libchamplain-gtk-0.4-0{a} libclutter-1.0-0{a} libclutter-gtk-0.10-0{a} libempathy-gtk28{a} libempathy30{a} libgeoclue0{a} libnm-glib0{a} libnm-util1{a} The following packages will be upgraded: empathy libempathy-common libempathy-gtk-common 3 packages upgraded, 16 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

After unpacking 7432B will be used. Do you want to continue? [y/N/q] q Is cupt resolver better than aptitude ones ? Or will it depend of the case and packages status ? Maybe aptitude is more conservative than cupt Have you got any thought ? Thank you very much !
