python-minimal: Breaks: python-dev
Hello
doing a :: Code :: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -dresults in :: Code :: Reading package lists... Done
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Failed The following packages have unmet dependencies: python-minimal: Breaks: python-dev (< 2.6) but 2.5.4-9 is to be installed E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. what's the easiest way to solve this problem? Thank you. I'm running Kernel 2.6.34-0.dmz.10-liquorix-686 i686 (32 bit) Distro sidux 2008-03 Ουρέα - kde-lite - (200809221818) Back to top |

remove python-dev which shouldn't be needed, but first check:
apt-get remove -s python-dev actually, looking again, I'd say you may have a held package. The versions aren't mismatched at this point, now. aptitude in general is much better about such issues but sidux still only supports apt-get so you have to work within those limitations. aptitude would have given you a series of options about what to do, you'd pick the one you wanted. Also check for held packages: dpkg -l | grep ^hi Back to top |

Thanks.
Removing python-dev didn't do any harm. I did do a dpkg -l | grep ^hi :: Code ::

I don't recall to put them on hold manually. Did smxi do that? Can I remove hold for these packages? I don't know if I want to switch to aptitude just yet. Since I didn't have any real trouble with apt-get... Back to top |

no, smxi didn't do that unless you did something really strange on a script exit, smxi always removes things from hold on exit no matter what else you did.
Yes, unhold those things, that's the cause of your error. Back to top |
