Hi everyone; In the past two days, etch (testing) has been updated with a kde meta package which apparently depends on packages from unstable which, in turn, has caused aptitude to suggest removing KDE when performing a system-wide upgrade. I have been able to hold it back by following the dependacy tree backwards and marking the troubled packages (kfilereplace, kimagemapeditor, klinkstatus, komander, kxsldbg) to hold. It appears that parts of kde-3.4.2 have slipped through the ftpmasters prematurely. Can anyone else confirm this? Why did this happen? Was this a mistake? Perhaps I have a package from unstable in there somewhere? How would I track it down? I have unstable in my sources.list in case I want to ever pin something in from it but so far I haven't. Here is my /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/preferences: ---- sources.list ------------------------------------------------------------ #deb file:///cdrom/ sarge main deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ etch main non-free contrib deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ etch main non-free contrib deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main non-free contrib deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main non-free contrib deb http://secure-testing.debian.net/debian-secure-testing etch/security-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://secure-testing.debian.net/debian-secure-testing etch/security-updates main contrib non-free ---- sources.list ------------------------------------------------------------ ---- preferences ------------------------------------------------------------- Package: * Pin: release a=stable Pin-Priority: 700 Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 650 Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 600 ---- preferences ------------------------------------------------------------- -- I use digital signatures and encryption.
