Bug#31891: apt: apt won't upgrade apt...
Package: apt
Version: 0.1.5
Hello,
I am not sure if this is a problem with my version of apt, a problem
with the slink archive, or one or more of the above...
snoopy# apt-get -s install xacc apt
Updating package status cache...done
Checking system integrity...ok
The following extra packages will be installed:
libstdc++2.9
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libstdc++2.9
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 173 not upgraded.
Inst libstdc++2.9
Conf libstdc++2.9
(It does seem a bit silly that it was going to install libstdc++2.9 instead
of the desired packages ;-)
I suspect that something is currently wrong with slink,
however all the dependencies look OK to me.
