Cairo-Dock libcal1/libcal1a package dependency problems after upgrade from Trusty to Vivid

[MC Return]

I'm trying to reinstall Cairo-Dock from the weekly PPA after the upgrade Trusty->Vivid removed those packages:

sudo apt-get install cairo-dock cairo-dock-plug-ins cairo-dock-plug-ins-dbus-interface-python
Reading package lists... 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:
 cairo-dock-plug-ins : Depends: libical1 (>= 1.0) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

$ sudo apt-get install cairo-dock cairo-dock-plug-ins cairo-dock-plug-ins-dbus-interface-python libical1

Reading state information... Done
Package libical1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  libical1a:i386 libical1a

E: Package 'libical1' has no installation candidate

Replacing "libical1" with "libical1 | libical1a" in the DEBIAN/control files should theoretically (untested) fix this issue.

$ apt-cache policy libical1a
libical1a:
  Installed: 1.0-1.3
  Candidate: 1.0-1.3
  Version table:
 *** 1.0-1.3 0

Replacing "libical1" with "libical1 | libical1a" in the DEBIAN/control file of cairo-dock-plug-ins_3.4.99.alpha1.1-20150103-git3269-7dde429-0ubuntu1-ppa0-vivid_amd64 fixed this issue for me.

Probably it would be a good idea to fix this issue upstream as well.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay and thank you for this bug report.

I just updated the weekly ppa. This bug should be fixed now!
