Hello, I'm using "aptitude full-upgrade" to keep my debian testing installations up-to-date.
For a reason that I do not understand, currently full-upgrade wants to install some rather huge packages. Please consider the output of "aptitude -D full-upgrade" below. I do not see any reason to install texlive-fonts-extra, and aptitude also does not seem to see one. But it still wants to install the package. Why? Asking aptitude itself doesn't help: # aptitude why texlive-fonts-extra i kernel-package Suggests xmlto p xmlto Depends docbook-xml (>= 4.2-8) p docbook-xml Suggests docbook p docbook Suggests psgml p psgml Suggests debiandoc-sgml p debiandoc-sgml Suggests texlive-lang-all p texlive-lang-all Depends texlive-lang-polish (>= 2012.20120516) p texlive-lang-polish Suggests texlive-fonts-extra Any suggestions?
