Bug Description
Here is how to reproduce this bug:
* Download http://
This is a small archive that contains a set of test, empty, Debian package files along with their source.
(run ./build to rebuild them)
* Install the testdep-
* Then run the following command and install the package:
qapt-
(on a 64-bit system, on a 32-bit one replace i386 with amd64)
The command will appear to succeed but in fact it leaves the testdep-
Here the testdep-
Note that this is also true of multiarch architecture=all packages. For instance one can also reproduce this bug with the following package combination (from the set of test packages):
* Install testdep-
Run qapt-deb-installer testdep-
Note that this is actually 'part two' of bug 1205523. It turns out it's a bit more important that I first realised.
This is also somewhat related to bug 1205530 in that it's multiarch=foreign packages that can satisfy dependencies for any architecture instead of architecture=all as qapt-deb-installer seems to think. The fix to the two bugs is probably different though.

Hi there!
Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https:/ /bugs.kde. org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.
Thanks!
