I still have this problem when trying to remove (buggy) PPA packages to replace them from mainstream Karmic repos. Synaptic does not handle the situation gracefully, or at all. It disobeys without explanation.
Command-line aptitude, however, does work a bit better. Those looking for a workaround should try: sudo aptitude install PACKAGE=VERSION where VERSION is the downgraded version string. aptitude will happily downgrade all the dependent packages, as well. -- Difficulty downgrading packages with dependencies https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/15019 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
