[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#746799: alsa-base: Depends: kmod but it is not going to be installed

[Jakub Wilk]

Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.25+3
Severity: grave

alsa-base cannot be installed in up-to-date unstable environment:

# apt-get install alsa-base
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 alsa-base : Depends: kmod but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


This is because alsa-base depends on kmod, but kmod_17-1 breaks 
"alsa-base (<= 1.0.25+3)".
