aolserver/openacs package dependency problem
Hi there. I'm having a problem installing openacs on my sid
system. The problem arises because of bug #84041 with aolserver 3.2-4
which fails during install. To circumvent this problem, I installed
aolserver 3.0rc2-4 available in potato. I then attempted to install
openacs, which correctly installs, but fails to configure in the
openacsconfigure script because of the call to /usr/sbin/aoladddb
available in aolserver-postgress which is not listed as a dependency
in openacs. Attempting to install aolserver-postgress results in the
following error:
# dpkg -i aolserver-postgres_3.0rc2-4.deb
Selecting previously deselected package aolserver-postgres.
(Reading database ... 29104 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking aolserver-postgres (from aolserver-postgres_3.0rc2-4.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of aolserver-postgres:
aolserver-postgres depends on libpgsql2 (>= 6.4-0); however:
Package libpgsql2 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing aolserver-postgres (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
aolserver-postgres
However, I can't install libpgsql2, because my system is installed
with libpgsql2.1 available from sid. How can I resolve this problem?
I'm willing to attempt to track down and correct the bug with
aolserver 3.2, but I'm not sure how to debug problems with debian
installation scripts.
Any help appreciated.
