** Description changed: The package evolution-rss is not installable. It depends on evolution < 3.2, which obviously is not available. + + [ Impact ] + Package is uninstallable in Oneiric for all users. + + [ Development Fix ] + Fixed in Precise by pulling version 0.2.90~20111111-1 from Debian experimental. That version depends on evolution (>= 3.2), evolution (<< 3.3). + + [ Stable Fix ] + According to upstream git log [1], there's only one commit related to changes in evolution [2] between 2011-08-22 (date of Oneiric snapshot) and 2011-11-11 (date of Precise snapshot). That commit only has effect for evolution >= 3.3.1. So there's no code changes we need to backport from Precise version. The fix is just relaxing binary dependency from << 3.2 to << 3.3. + + [ Test Case ] + Run in terminal: + + $ sudo apt-get install evolution-rss + + Result: + + The following packages have unmet dependencies: + evolution-rss : Depends: evolution (< 3.2) but 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 is to be installed + E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. + + Expected result: successful installation. + + [ Regression Potential ] + Once the package is installable, bugs in it may become visible. + + [1] http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-rss/log/ + [2] http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-rss/commit/?id=f9f0880e2fc56ce69d0a25359c31cfcaac93050f ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: evolution-rss (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-12.20-generic 3.0.4 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic i686 ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu3 Architecture: i386 Date: Fri Oct 14 10:13:25 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha i386 (20110803.1) SourcePackage: evolution-rss UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
