Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

It appears that #442651 is back. The auto-upgrade-test found the following problem:

2010-04-06 06:46:12,811 ERROR Exception during pm.DoInstall()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/upgrade-tester/DistUpgradeView.py", line 182, in run

SystemError: E:Couldn't configure pre-depend openoffice.org-core for openoffice.org-evolution, probably a dependency cycle.

The same fix works for me as in bug #442651. Adding a "openoffice.org-common (>= 1:3.1.0-2)" as first item in the pre-depends line (makes me wonder why the original fix was dropped?).

It looks like this probably got dropped when merging or when fixing another pre-dep bug without realizing it helped fix a problem with upgrades, as Debian doesn't have it.

mvo,

Were you ever able to determine what the bug is in apt that requires this to be included and is there already a bug on apt for this?

openoffice.org-evolution:

Pre-Depends: openoffice.org-core (= 1:3.2.0-4ubuntu2)

openoffice.org-core:

Depends: openoffice.org-common (>> 1:3.2.0)

Thanks,

Chris
