Hi,

Yes you're right but:
- g-v-m 2.22 debian version isn't compatible with consolekit 0.3 so when you
downgrade g-v-m to 2.22 you must downgrade consolekit too,
- hal in testing requires consolekit 0.3,
- g-v-m 2.24 testing version need nautilus 2.24 which is not in testing.

=> It's the souk in testing ! Currently I've frozen 9 packages to keep
testing usable... :(

Regards,
