Bug#87767: apt-get upgrade fails strangely (Depends: libapt-pkg2.7)



Package: apt
Version: 0.5.0

Should this be severity important?  It doesn't work for me at all...

First, see what occurs with apt 0.3.19 :

  # apt-get -u dist-upgrade
  Reading Package Lists... Done
  Building Dependency Tree... Done
  Calculating Upgrade... Done
  The following packages will be upgraded
    bsdgames fvwm fvwm-common lg-issue23 sox xcolors 
  6 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
  Need to get 2970kB of archives. After unpacking 351kB will be used.
  Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
  Abort.

Now with apt 0.5.0 :

  # dpkg -i /tmp/apt_0.5.0_i386.deb 
  (Reading database ... 88816 files and directories currently installed.)
  Preparing to replace apt 0.3.19 (using /tmp/apt_0.5.0_i386.deb) ...
  Unpacking replacement apt ...
  dpkg: warning - unable to delete old file `/var/state/apt/lists/partial': Directory not empty
  dpkg: warning - unable to delete old file `/var/state/apt/lists': Directory not empty
  Setting up apt (0.5.0) ...
  dhelp_parse: Warning - documents in /usr/doc are no longer supported!


  # apt-get -u dist-upgrade
  Reading Package Lists... Done
  Building Dependency Tree... Done
  You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
  Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
    apt-move: Depends: libapt-pkg2.7
    console-apt: Depends: libapt-pkg2.7
    gnome-apt: Depends: libapt-pkg2.7
    libapt-pkg-dev: Depends: libapt-pkg2.7
  E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

Thanks,
Peter
