dependencies unmet for dbf2pg and postgresql?
I am using a slink machine and I noticed this:
Package: libpgsql2
Version: 6.4.2-1
Section: libs
Priority: optional
Architecture: i386
Depends: libc6, libc6 (>= 2.0.7u)
Suggests: postgresql-doc,postgresql
Conflicts: libpq1,postgres95,postgresql (<< 6.4),libpgsql (<<6.3.2-16)
and this:
Package: dbf2pg
Version: 2.0-6
Section: contrib/misc
Priority: optional
Architecture: i386
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.0.7u), libpgsql (>= 6.3.1-1)
Conflicts: libpgsql (>= 6.4)
Both from slink, as you can see, dbf2pg 2.06, a dbf to postgres converter
provided by slink conflicts with the libpgsql provided in the
same distribution. I understand that postgresql 6.3 and 6.4 are not
compatible with each other, but I think we should not be providing a
package the would only work with another that is not in the
current distribution for obvious reasons, in special for fresh
installations.
I am reverting my postgres environment to the one I had in hamm in order
to have my work done, since I depend upon dbf2pg. Should I file a bug
against it or I am missing something?
