Matthias: tomcat6 depends on tomcat6-common, which depends on libtomcat6-java, which depends on default-jre-headless, which depends on openjdk-6-jre- headless...
My understanding was that since "a package will not be configured unless all of the packages listed in its Depends field have been correctly configured", tomcat6 should not have its postinst run before openjdk-6 -jre-headless is configured... and that apt-get was just trying to do it to solve the circular dependency between -lib and -jre-headless. I suppose I got it wrong somewhere ? -- Circular dependency between -lib and -jre-headless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291123 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
