[SRU] apache2-mpm-itk uninstallable with apache2.2-common from hardy-proposed

[Michael Bienia]

Binary package hint: apache2-mpm-itk

There is currently a apache2 SRU in hardy-proposed. As apache2-mpm-itk has a very strict dependency on apache2.2-common (= version) it needs a rebuild everytime apache2 gets uploaded.

Fix: Rebuild with apache2 from hardy-proposed.

TEST CASE:
- Enable hardy-proposed
- Try to install apache2-mpm-itk

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  apache2-mpm-itk: Depends: apache2.2-common (= 2.2.8-1) but 2.2.8-1ubuntu0.1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

I can confirm this, i just tried installing apache2-mpm-itk and i ran into the same dependency problem.

apache2.2-common 2.2.8-1ubuntu0.1 has been published in hardy-updates.
ACK from motu-sru to upload a no-change rebuild for apache2-mpm-itk.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Since a new version of apache2 has just been uploaded [1] I rejected this one from the queue. Please reupload another one with the updated version number. Thanks!

Does the dependency really need to be that strict, BTW?

Please, fix this for Intrepid too:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  apache2-mpm-itk: Depends: apache2.2-common (= 2.2.8-3) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

HARDY:

+1 (tested on AMD64)

apache2-mpm-itk 2.2.6-01-1build2.1 installs successfully with apache2.2-common from hardy-proposed (2.2.8-1ubuntu0.2).

So it should be moved together with the current apache2 from hardy-proposed into hardy-updates.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package apache2-mpm-itk - 2.2.6-01-2build1

---------------
apache2-mpm-itk (2.2.6-01-2build1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Rebuild with apache2 2.2.8-4 (LP: #232480).
