Which Package To File This Bug Report Under?
Hello,
I'm currently running Debian Unstable... I'd like to report a bug
concerning a package but I'm a bit confused as to which package to file
it under.
First, I don't think apt-get automatically logs its activities... I can
find no mention of that in the man page. Correct me if I am wrong
though. I'd like the logs so I can put up the exact error messages I
got.
I attempted to do an apt-get dist-upgrade and everything worked fine
until it attempted to:
- install libsnmpkit2 (version 0.9-4). Apt quit with an error saying
that it was trying to overwrite a .so installed by libsnmpkit1
- So I tried to remove libsnmpkit1 and received another error, which was
pconf-detect(0.5-4) depended on libsnmpkit1
-I tried to remove pconf-detect and got another error. Couldn't remove
pconf-detect because it depended on libprinterconf0 (0.5-4) which
depended on libsnmpkit2 which wasn't installed yet
I tried using apt-get -f install. No dice.
This appears to be the dependency sequence:
pconf-detect<----libsnmpkit1
<----libprinterconf0<----libsnmpkit2 XXXXXX libsnmpkit1
<----depends XXXX conflict
Finally I used dpkg --remove pconf-detect a and removed everything down
the line. I installed libsnmpkit2 and then installed back up.
Everything seemed to work fine after that and apt didn't have a
problem...
Any comments as to how to file this would be appreciated. I'm thinking
under libsnmpkit2
Any comments as to how to improve my questions (w/ the exception of
including logs - the next time I'll make sure) would be grealty
appreciated
Thanks,
Allen
