I saw exactly the same behaviour with several other packages in various PPAs (which are not always essential)
For example in my ppa vmware-player keeps reinstalling, but not vmware- player-kernel-modules and vmware-player-kernel-modules-2.6.14-* whereas they are built from the same source package. -- apt reinstalls same bash from '~ppa1' (because it's essential?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152317 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
