samba unmet dependencies

[Andres Cimmarusti-2]

Hi,

I just want to point out an unmet dependency.
I've been trying to upgrade my version of samba to the current one available in backports, but I get this problem:

$ sudo aptitude -t lenny-backports install samba samba-common smbfs smbclient
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree      
Reading state information... Done
Reading extended state information     
Initializing package states... Done

The following packages are BROKEN:
  samba
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  samba-common-bin{a}
The following packages will be upgraded:
  libwbclient0 samba-common smbclient smbfs
5 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 48 not upgraded.
Need to get 26.5MB of archives. After unpacking 16.2MB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  samba: Depends: libpam-runtime (>= 1.0.1-11) but 1.0.1-5+lenny1 is installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

Remove the following packages:
samba

Score is -9881

The package libpam-runtime is currently not provided in backports and the version in lenny is not enough.

This was discussed on the list yesterday.  Christian knows about the
problem and is working on preparing a fixed package.

Which works perfectly :-)

Thanks a lot Christian!

May be I have missed the point but I am still not able to upgrade to  
the backports package of libpam-smbpass:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   libpam-smbpass: Depends: libpam-runtime (>= 1.0.1-6) but  
1.0.1-5+lenny1 is installed

Does your fix also affect the libpam-smbpass package?

Thanks a lot for your help!

I'm not in position of checking this right now but it's very likely
that I need to undo yet another change we made to unstable packages:

  * debian/libpam-smbpass.pam-config, debian/libpam-smbpass.postinst,
    debian/libpam-smbpass.files, debian/rules: provide a config block
    for the new PAM framework, allowing this PAM module to
    auto-configure itself
  * debian/control: make libpam-smbpass depend on
    libpam-runtime (>= 1.0.1-2ubuntu1) for the above


That backport is getting more and more complicated..:-(

 But 1.0.1-5+1lenny1 _is_ >= 1.0.1-2ubuntu1. I think you might just have
either looked at the wrong changelog entry or reduced the versioned
depends too little.

 Hope that helps. :)

I probably overlooked the full changelog while sending that first
answer, as the changelog was my only available material when I wrote
it.

It should have but it didn't. Indeed, the dependency *can* be relaxed
to 1.0.1-2ubuntu1 as the change to PAM config files that requires
libpam-runtime 1.0.1-6 is already dropped from backported packages.

So, the fix the libpam-smbpass is just relaxing the dependencies: no
other change. As a consequence, you can safely force the installation
of the package by ignoring the dependency requirements (download the
.deb files and install them with "dpkg
--ignore-depends=libpam-runtime"). This, until I reupload fixed
packages of course.
