[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#606278: aptitude resolver is completely broken in 0.60.6

[Modestas Vainius]

Package: libsbuild-perl
Version: 0.60.6-1
Severity: important

Hello,

aptitude resolver no longer works in 0.60.6. I suppose it has become pretty
important because it's the only which supports experimental properly. See
sample build log below.

$ sbuild --apt-update -d experimental -s -A phonon-backend-vlc_0.3.1-1.dsc
sbuild (Debian sbuild) 0.60.6 (07 Dec 2010) on mdxdesktop.lan.vainius.eu
