Debdiff with the proposed fix for this bug. ** Description changed:
+ Updating libatk1.0-dev in karmic to the version of libatk1.0-dev in + lucid causes an error, due to libatk1.0-dev in lucid containing the same + file as the gobject-introspection-repository package from karmic. + libatk1.0-dev contains the file in question due to the deprecation of + the gobject-introspection-repository package. + + Whilst most users do not have libatk1.0-dev installed, there is a good + chance that developers updating from karmic will hit this packaging + error. Whilst slightly outside the standard upgrade use case, the + libatk1.0-dev package in its current form will break the release upgrade + process. + + There is no chance of regression potential, as the updated libatk1.0-dev + package replaces gobject-introspection-repository, thereby taking + ownership of the file file that causes the conflict error. + + Test case: + This bug, and the proposed fix, are best tested in a karmic chroot, with all karmic updates applied. The tester will also require libatk1.0-0 and libatk1.0-dev packages for both lucid, and lucid-proposed, either by downloading the .deb files directly, or adding lucid-proposed as a package source in sources.list. If a karmic chroot is not available, an up to date karmic install should be sufficient for testing. If you wish to update your system completely from akrmic to lucid, skip step 2 below, and perform the instructions in step 3, ensuring you also have lucid-proposed in sources.list. The chroot method is preferred however, as it prevents the installation of other packages from lucid-proposed, which may interfear with testing the fix for this bug. + + 1. Enter the karmic chroot, and install libatk1.0-dev from the karmic repos. + 2. Either from .deb files, or by adding lucid in sources.list, install libatk1.0-0 and libatk1.0-dev packages. Notice the package error, due to two packages claiming to own /usr/share/gir-1.0/Atk-1.0.gir. + 3. Again either from .deb files, or by adding lucid-proposed to sources.list, install libatk1.0-0 and libatk1.0-dev packages, making sure they are version 1.30.0-0ubuntu2.1. These packages should now install successfully. + + NOTE: This bug is not present when upgrading from lucid to maverick, so + no fix is required in maverick. + + Original bug description follows: error while updating.
