mediatomb install fails on wheezy
hi,
Trying to install mediatomb on wheezy, I got:
serious bugs of mediatomb (-> 0.12.1-4) <marked as done in some version>
#677959 - mediatomb: fails to build against current version of
libavformat (Fixed: mediatomb/0.12.1-5)
I have several question about this error:
1/ what means "fixed mediatomb/0.12.1-5" ?
2/ I installed in June without any problem on my laptop, which has the same
kernel: 3.2.0-4-686-paem, the version is 0.12.1-4
3/ however, the install of mediatomb-common mediatomb-daemon succeeded, and
the mediatomb executable itself comes from mediatomb-common. So
the content of the mediatomb package being just:
mediatomb: /usr/share/applications/mediatomb.desktop
mediatomb: /usr/share/doc/mediatomb/README.Debian
mediatomb: /usr/share/doc/mediatomb/changelog.Debian.gz
mediatomb: /usr/share/doc/mediatomb/changelog.gz
mediatomb: /usr/share/doc/mediatomb/copyright
mediatomb: /usr/share/lintian/overrides/mediatomb
mediatomb: /usr/share/menu/mediatomb
mediatomb: /usr/share/pixmaps/mediatomb.png
mediatomb: /usr/share/pixmaps/mediatomb.xpm
I don't see the origin of the install failure
I forced the install by commenting out(temporarily), in the config file,
the line
DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"/usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10";};
Let's cross fingers!
NB: after that, I downloaded the source, and built it succesfully !!
(still version 0.12.1-4) So, I still don't understand why "apt-get install"
fails.
4/ more generally, I had recently a lot of such apt-listbugs errors when
trying to install packages. This seems surprizing for a distro
released about 6 monts ago.
best regards,
