 1.0.7-2 but 1.0.7-2 is the latest version available

Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.7-2
Severity: grave

After an apt-get update, alsa-base is kept back. Trying to install it
manually yields the following error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  alsa-base: Depends: alsa-utils (> 1.0.7-2) but 1.0.7-2 is to be
  installed

It seems that the dependency information for the package is wrong, and
the dependency on alsa-utils should be ">= 1.0.7-2".

Thanks for the report.

alsa-utils 1.0.8-1 didn't make it into sid last night even though alsa-base 1.0.8-1 did.
The result is that alsa-base 1.0.8-1 is uninstallable for one day.

You can find the package you need (alsa-utils_1.0.8-1_i386.deb ) at
http://incoming.debian.org/.

hi,

unfortunately, alsa-base is still uninstallable on powerpc because the new
alsa-utils ppc package is not in sid even tough the x86 one is (and alsa-base
as well as alsa-utils in fact is installable on x86).

Trying to install alsa-base on ppc fails with:

I also find it ridiculous that it takes two weeks to build a package on
the powerpc arch. It is in the queue. There is nothing more that I can
do about it.
