Description Duncan Lithgow 2008-07-26 16:05:00 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
I was asked in bug #334470 to install an SVN snapshot

Stack trace:
nothing here, keep moving...

Other information:

duncan@duncan-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install ekiga-snapshot

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:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  ekiga-snapshot: Depends: libopal-snapshot (= 20080724-1) but it is not going to be installed or
                           libopal-snapshot-ptrace (= 20080724-1) but it is not going to be installed or
                           libopal-snapshot-develop (= 20080724-1) but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: libpopt0 (>= 1.14) but 1.10-3build1 is to be installed
                  Depends: libxcb-render-util0 but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

Closing as it's not really a software bug, but I did report to our snapshot packagers
Comment 2 Eugen Dedu 2008-07-26 17:01:37 UTC 
Hi Duncan,

Is the problem in debian or ubuntu?
Comment 3 Yannick 2008-07-26 21:53:17 UTC 
Hello Duncan,

I'm packaging for Ubuntu.

Please provide me:
-your distro version (e.g. 8.04)
-your repository: either snapshot.ekiga.org or either the ppa.

Most probably the issue is:
I did not had enough time to finish the packaging today...

I'll fix this problem tomorrow.

Best regards,
Yannick

Duncan, this problem has been fixed, could you check please?
Comment 5 Duncan Lithgow 2008-08-04 11:44:55 UTC 
I still get exactly the same message with the only difference that the version is now 20080731-1.
Comment 6 Yannick 2008-08-04 11:48:02 UTC 
Duncan,

You are using Debian, right?

Regards,
Yannick
Comment 7 Duncan Lithgow 2008-08-04 12:05:33 UTC 
Well, sort of. Ubuntu 8.04 I will try it with Ubuntu 8.10 in the next few days.
Comment 8 Yannick 2008-08-04 12:21:44 UTC 
Ducan,

I upgraded the Ubuntu packages a few minutes ago, can you try to upgrade?

The current packages are tagged "20080803v01hardy3".

Comment 9 Duncan Lithgow 2008-08-04 12:51:11 UTC 
Installation works. I think I was using the debian packages, sorry.
Comment 10 Yannick 2008-08-04 13:20:44 UTC 
Good :)
