PPA's always wanting to upgrade
Hi everyone,
I've had a few users of my PPA's (mythbuntu,mythbuntu-trunk,ipod-touch) complaining about stuff like this happening: zorael@azrael:~$ sudo aptitude full-upgrade Reading package lists...

What if you do a "sudo apt-get update"?

PPA's always wanting to upgrade

Hi Mario, This issue is a known bug in the PPA code that generates archive indexes, see https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/165230. As the schooltool's zope3 package, you use 'Pre-depends' in your package and LP doesn't include it in the indexes, once it's installed apt gets confused by this difference (local metadata and ppa-index metadata), assumes the package has changed and tries to install it again. BTW, isn't 'Pre-Depends: debconf' unnecessary ? Anyway, If you can safely avoid the use of the following control-fields in your packages until we get our code fixed, installations from your PPA will be fine * Source::Build-Conflicts * Source::Build-Conflicts-Indep * Binary::Pre-depends * Binary::Recommends * Binary::Enhances * Binary::Breaks * Binary::Essential See https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/172308 for more information on this task. Sorry for this inconvenience, we will be working to get it fixed ASAP.

Celso,
Thanks for the heads up on this. I'll subscribe and let my users know about the issue.
