Hello list,
I am having trouble with the build-dep function of apt-get. For some
reason it does not download the correct dependancy for svgalib on i386
(ie. it downloads svgalib-dummyg1 instead of svgalibg1-dev). Here is
the Build-Dep excerpt from the debian/control file of fceu:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>> 3.0.0), patch, libz-dev, svgalibg1-dev | svgalib-dummyg1, libsdl-dev
When I run `apt-get build-dep fceu` with Debug::pkgProblemResolver enabled
on an i386 in an unstable chroot, this is what I get:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Note, selecting zlib1g-dev instead of libz-dev
Note, selecting libsdl1.2-dev instead of libsdl-dev
