Bug#276617: base: libreadline-common conflict with libreadline4 during netinstall package retrieval
Package: base,
install
Version: Sarge,
net-install, daily build of Oct 14, 2004
Associated
packages:
Package:
libreadline-common
Version:
5.0.1
Package:
libreadline4
Version:
4.3-11
Details: Conflict
when running Debian Sarge; net-instal; clean hard disk. When base-config arrives
at package selection and download, a version dependency mismatch occurs. This
error is 100% reproducable on 2 machines over the past 36 hours. Error message
is as follows:
The following
packages have unmet dependencies:
libreadline-common: Conflicts: libreadline4 (< 4.3-13) but 4.3-11 is to be
installed.
tasksel: aptitude
failed
When returning to
base-config and attempting second time, it simply happens again. Error message
was obtained from base-confg-log in /var/logs . aptitude will not continue
beyond this point. A manual search of aptitude shows libreadline5
(5.0.1) listed as an available package, but the Debian Installer and
base-config program are insistent on requesting libreadline4, thereby breaking
the setup routine.
