Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdebi
When installing a package which depends on scrollkeeper (unversioned), and rarian-compat (which Provides scrollkeeper) is installed, gdebi forcibly uninstalls rarian-compat and installs scrollkeeper, causing a lot of dependency issues. Installing the same package with dpkg -i does not cause this problem. This can be reproduced on Jaunty by installing (for example) this: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24562564/ubuntu-docs_9.04.6_all.deb using gdebi. I first experienced the bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-user- docs/+bug/281277/comments/13 Colin Watson confirmed this was a problem with gdebi rather than the package here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-user- docs/+bug/281277/comments/14 ** Affects: gdebi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- gdebi forcibly uninstalls rarian-compat https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353088 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
