Package: apt
Version: 0.6.43
Severity: normal


If I try to re-install scim-m17n (deleted by apt to fix other scim problems), apt complains that it has unmet dependencies, but the list of dependencies does not make any sense:

It claims that scim >= 1.0.1 is not going to be installed, but scim 1.4.1 (obviously > 1.0.1) is already installed.

$ LANG=C sudo apt-get install scim-m17n
Password:
Reading package lists... Done

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Hi,

What this means is that thanks to a dependency problem (Conflicts
maybe?) scim will be removed from your system (hence scim >= 1.0.1 isn't
satisified anymore). The message has changed in the last 10 years which
should make this a bit more clear, but in the end this isn't a bug but
a user support question which should have been sent to a user-support
mailinglist. Closing.


Best regards
