Can't get out of dependency resolution in dselect
I have a PowerPC testing system.
I just updated today, and now whenever I try to install any software, dselect
keeps wanting me to resolve dependencies. Eventually I get down to where it
lists two packages, mozilla-browser and mozilla-xmlterm. After that, no matter
what I do, I can't get dselect to think the dependencies are satisfied. The
only escape is to control-c to kill dselect, so I can't really use dselect anymore.
If I select mozilla-browser in dselect's resolution dialog, down below it says:
mozilla-browser suggests xprt-xprintorg
mozilla-xmlterm depends on mozilla-browser (= 1.0.0-0.woody.1)
note that xprt-xprintorg is not listed in the dependency resolution dialog. I
have mozilla 1.0.0-0.woody.1 installed.
If I select mozilla-xmlterm in the list, down below it says:
mozilla-xmlterm depends on mozilla-browser (= 1.0.0-0.woody.1)
Pressing return to exit the dialog just brings me back into the dialog.
