Yes, I've seen this while upgrading unstable -> unstable, but only using aptitude or apt-get dist-upgrade. apt-get upgrade successfully finds a solution that keeps ghc6 installed: The following packages have been kept back: clisp cpp cpp-4.4 doc-base g++ g++-4.4 gcc gcc-4.4 gcc-4.4-base ghostscript git git-svn gitweb libgcc1 libgmpxx4ldbl libgomp1 libmpfr4 libstdc++6 libstdc++6-4.4-dev linux-image-2.6-amd64 ... 136 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 21 not upgraded. > If so, please try again as soon as your mirror has libgmp10-dev_5.0.1 > +dfsg-6. Problem seems to be that installing libgmp10-dev removes libgpm3-dev, and apt prefers removing ghc6. The solution above did not involve installing libgmp10-dev. -- see shy jo
