Public bug reported: Binary package hint: h5utils
h5utils in lucid depends on libhdf5-1.8.3 - this needs to be updated to libhdf5-1.8.4 to not break other hdf5 packages. For example, attempting to install h5utils and hdf5-tools is impossible: # apt-get install h5utils hdf5-tools Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: hdf5-tools: Depends: libhdf5-serial-1.8.4 but it is not going to be installed or libhdf5-1.8.4 E: Broken packages This is on an up-to-date (as of 2010-02-24) lucid system: # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu lucid (development branch) Release: 10.04 Looking upstream, this seems to be fixed in sid (http://packages.debian.org/sid/h5utils), but not in squeeze (http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/h5utils). I don't have any Debian systems to test on, so I can't verify this fix. ** Affects: h5utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [lucid] libhdf5 dependency on libhdf5-1.8.3 needs updating https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527110 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
