Bug#199936: apt: "version requirements" error not applicable
Package: apt
Version: 0.5.5.1
Severity: normal
% apt-get build-dep at
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Build-Depends dependency for at cannot be satisfied because no available versions of package mail-transport-agent can satisfy version requirements
% apt-cache show at
Package: at
Architecture: i386
Version: 3.1.8-11
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.4-4), mail-transport-agent
% apt-cache policy exim
exim:
Installed: 3.36-6
Candidate: 3.36-6
Version Table:
*** 3.36-6 0
500 ftp://ftp.at.debian.org sid/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
There is no version requirement that could fail. And exim provides
mail-transport-agent and is installed. Somethings fishy.
