[Yast4debian-devel] Packages dependencies

[Ramon Acedo]

Hi,

finally I found the time to check the deps and write to the list :-)

* yast2 should depend on:
    
    - yast2-core because of the binary y2base.
    - yast2-packagemanager (don't ask me why but it does not work
      otherwise).
    - liby2tool.

* yast2-core should depend on

    - yast2-ncurses (a message telling it is shown).

* In the postinstallation of yast2 /var/log/YaST2/ should be created

All of the above was in a fresh Debian Sarge 

Ubuntu:

It would be great to be able to install it in Ubuntu. I'd like to ask to
the Kubuntu team whether they are interested in helping (I'll comment it
later in another post). At the moment there is this problem:

root@pangeadm:/home/ramon # apt-get install yast2-core
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... 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:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  yast2-core: Depends: libcurl3 (>= 7.13.1-1) but 7.12.3-2ubuntu3 is to
be installed
              Depends: libidn11 (>= 0.5.13) but 0.5.2-3 is to be
installed
E: Broken packages

But it will work with the Ubuntu libcurl3 and libidn11 versions.

See you!
