Re: Use Debian lenny package on Debian squeeze
As you suggested I installed the package dependencies for Bacula using the
packages for squeeze, which went fine for some packages but not for the
libsqlite3-dev pacakge asou you can see here:
# apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libsqlite3-dev : Depends: libsqlite3-0 (= 3.7.3-1) but 3.7.4-2 is to be
installed
E: Broken packages
Do you have any idea how I can resolve this problem?
Regards

usually higher versions are ok ( if the api of the new versions aren't
totally changed )
As you can see for some of them you should have greater than * version -
libgtk2.0-dev (>= 2.10) for example .
So I would try with current versions from squeeze .
if you don't want to install all the development stuff to the server
than try pbuilder .
It will create a minimal necessary build environment , install all
dependencies , build
the package , and clean up it the after all .
But you should mention that you need to build package for squeeze and not
for sid (unstable) which is used by default.
