Is the release team aware of this issue?
Will migration to testing of the new vim be blocked automatically until
this is solved?
Cheers,

Subject: apt-get dist-upgrade will remove metapackages
Date: Tuesday 05 April 2005 23:25
From: "Peder Chr. Nørgaard" <pcn@pogt.dk>

The last couple of days I have not been able to complete an "apt-get
dist-upgrade" on my "sid" system, because it warns me that it will remove
metapackages kde and kdeaddons. It looks to me as if the problem is
caused by the newest version of the "vim" packages (1:6.3-068+4): the
changelog contains:
+ Removed all kvim related packages, the code is no longer
maintained. Sorry. (closes: #234455, #237385, #283765, #293110, #194449,
#205586, #266431, #272621, #294848, #245006, #194964)
The dependency sequence
kde to kdeaddons to vimpart to kvim
is thus broken.
To me it looks as if kde metapackage is now uninstallable in "sid" which
is really a pretty serious problem. Or is there some kind of
work-around that will satisfy the dependency sequence in some other way?
thanks in advance
