[Bug 901638] Re: tdsodbc failed to upgrade from Oneiric to Precise

[Steve Langasek]

I don't think this can be fixed in freetds (or if it can be, it's not
obvious and needs an apter to tell me how).

The oneiric tdsodbc Recommends: libiodbc2 | unixodbc, so libiodbc2 gets
pulled in automatically as the first solution.  The precise tdsodbc
Breaks: libiodbc2 because precise is moving to multiarch paths for ODBC
drivers, and libiodbc2 doesn't implement this (and won't, the package is
orphaned and will be removed from Debian unstable and precise just as
soon as I get a solution for soprano to work with unixodbc).

So I think we need update-manager to take care of this for us.

** Package changed: freetds (Ubuntu Precise) => update-manager (Ubuntu
Precise)

** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu Precise)
