[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#578810: sbuild: doesn't install package that's also provided.

[Kurt Roeckx]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.60.0-1+buildd20100421.1
Severity: important

Hi,

libtime-y2038-perl currently can't be build, it fails with:
** Using build dependencies supplied by package:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7), perl (>= 5.6.100), libtest-warn-perl (>= 0.11), libtest-exception-perl (>= 0.27), libjson-perl (>= 2.17), libmodule-build-perl (>= 0.36) | perl (>= 5.12)

Checking for already installed source dependencies...
debhelper: missing
Using default version 7.4.17
perl: already installed (5.10.1-12 >= 5.6.100 is satisfied)
libtest-warn-perl: missing
Using default version 0.21-1
libtest-exception-perl: missing
Using default version 0.29-1
libjson-perl: missing
Using default version 2.21-1
libmodule-build-perl: non-matching version installed (~*=PROVIDED=*= ! >= 0.36)
Using default version 0.360700-1
perl: non-matching version installed (5.10.1-12 ! >= 5.12)
Default version of perl not sufficient, Package installation not possible

Note that perl-modules (5.10.1-12) provides libmodule-build-perl,
but it's also a real package in the archive with version
0.360700-1.  perl 5.12.0-1 is only in experimental.

I though this case was one of the reasons why we needed to
switch to this version of sbuild.
