Re: libsc7_2.3.1-3_amd64.deb problems
Hi:
Sorry for this lengthy dealing with libsc7/libsc8, though I would like to clean the system, i.e. not to have these issues raised at each "apt-get upgrade". Actually, now "apt-get upgrade" only results in:
Reading package list ...Done
Building dependency tree ... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct.
Packages with unmet dependencies:
libsc-dev: Depends: libsc7 (= 2.3.1-3) but it is not installed.
It seems to be unable to upgrading, unless there is nothing else.
I think that I don't need either libsc7 or libsc8. Both come from "The Scientific Computing Toolkit" (Sandja Lab, mpqc) an extraordinary quantum mechanical package that I used successfully, but one that unfortunately is not being developed toward organic chemical applications. Therefore I don't use it any more. There is a relationship with "ghemical" that I don't use either on this amd64 system (I barely run 'startx' on rare occasions)
I did some search:
apt-cache rdepends libsc7
ENTER
Reverse Depends:
mpqc-support
mpqc
libsc-dev
libghemical3gf
apt-cache rdepends libsc8
ENTER
Reverse Depends:
[nothing reported]
If I carry out the same commands with i386 (where mpqc is still installed), for libsc7 there is one line more "libghemical0c2a", while for libsc8 the answer is "no package found".
Thanks
