The problem is that libreadline5 is priority: standard, but should not really be targetted for sarge as nothing uses it (except for rlfe), and should definitely not have been allowed into sarge at priority: standard after the base freeze was in effect. Fixing this conflict between standard packages requires either fixing the priority of libreadline5 in the archive, or allowing an updated version of libreadline4 into testing; since libreadline5 should not be joining the default system at this late stage, I'm not inclined to agree with the latter. To fix sarge until an appropriate priority override can be made by an ftpmaster, I've hinted libreadline5 (and rlfe) for removal from sarge. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
