(That's #526046 and badly fixed in svn, pending upload. The fixes uses a (incomplete) hard coded lists of circular depends (urgh!), which is also why I haven't uploaded it. It's running on piuparts.d.o though.) (And, FWIW, piuparts.d.o still wouldnt test all packages: if a package has a broken depends (broken as in the piuparts test fails), that package won't be tested. Sadly there are quite some broken depends.) > and a more deterministic > package installation order would be ensured. :) That's totally true :) cheers, Holger
