Package qsynth fails install on fresh install
 

Hello,

I just installed 64studio 2.1, and I'm recieving this message when I
try to do a 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade':

Preparing to replace qsynth 0.2.5-2 (using
.../qsynth_0.2.5-2+etch1_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement qsynth ...

Package qsynth fails install on fresh install
 

Hi Philip,


I just installed 64studio 2.1, and I'm recieving this message when I
try to do a 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade':

.../qsynth_0.2.5-2+etch1_amd64.deb) ...

This is a known bug, see: http://64studio.com/node/678

If you look at the changelog, you'll see the only update in Debian was
to fix the desktop file name!


http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/q/qsynth/qsynth_0.2.5-2+etch1/changelog

It's the workaround for this bug in the 64studio-themes package which
conflicts with Debian's fix.


So locking the package version for the time being is perfectly
acceptable. It's actually long overdue for a package update.


Cheers!

Daniel
