[Bug 940396] Re: lucid -> precise main all failed to upgrade: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of kde-runtime

[James Hunt]

I'm starting to suspect a multi-arch issue here...

$ dpkg-query -W -f='${Package}\t${Multi-Arch}\n' | sort -k1,1n|\
   egrep "libgssapi-krb5-2|libsmbclient|libglib2.0-0|kde-runtime|kdelibs5-plugins"|sort -k2,2r|expand
libgssapi-krb5-2    same
libsmbclient           same
libglib2.0-0            same
kde-runtime          no
kdelibs5-plugins   no

All the dependencies that are missed are "Multi-Arch: same". The method
pkgPackageManager::SmartConfigure() special-cases multi-arch support
right at the end, but it's looking like it should be handled within the
main dependency loop to avoid this scenario.

@slangasek/@mvo: Could you comment?
