mythexport: Depends: libmyth-perl but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages

[Stefan Pappalardo]

Binary package hint: mythexport

In one of the last updates of mythtv (weeklybuilds) update-manager recommended me to do a partial dist-upgrade. In the update mythexport was deinstalled. When I try to reinstall mythexport I get this.

Can you please enable the testing repo (go to mcc and hit the checkbox) and see if this persists?

[Stefan Pappalardo (sjuk)]

I activated the testing repo in mcc. After that mythexport installed fine. Do I have to let the testing repo staying activated in order to be able to use mythexport?

[Mario Limonciello (superm1)]

You can disable it now that you have the newer version if you like. Thanks
for the confirmation that it fixed it.

I cannot confirm this. Even after enabling the testing repos and updating the apt cache, I still get dependency conflicts.

[Mario Limonciello (superm1)]

Jan:

Which release are you running? It was only backported to Karmic on
-testing.

I'm using Karmic.

[Jan Schneider (yunosh)]

Is anybody looking into this? Are we two the only affected users? Weekly builds are hardly monthly builds now for me.

[Thomas Mashos (tgm4883)]

Please post the output when you try to install mythexport

Also, weekly builds are now aurobuilds. The only build if there is an
upstream change

It's not when installing, but when upgrading an existing install. This
is the output with testing repos enabled:

Run: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

This will install the new libmythtv-perl package and the newer versions of mythexport, mythtv-backend, etc.

[Jan Schneider (yunosh)]

But it will also uninstall nuvexport. Or is this part of the mythexport package now?

[rhpot1991 (rhpot1991)]

No, that mean that your version of nuvexport doesn't use the new libmythtv-perl package. You will need to remove it and find one that works with it. You can open a new bug on that issue. I am closing this bug as it no longer valid.

[Jan Schneider (yunosh)]

My version? You mean Mythbuntu's version.

[Antonio Lopez (amlopezalonso)]

Mythexport still asks for broken dependencies in current autobuilds (mythtv 0.22.0-fixes23473-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu3).

[Mario Limonciello (superm1)]

Antonio:

Make sure you have the testing repo enabled too. You can find it on the
repos page in MCC.

Sorry Mario, you're right.

I had enabled the testing repo in MCC before and still appeared as marked, but I'm afraid I disabled it from Synaptic.

Antonio

[Steve Bailey (stevobailey)]

Hi all, first time poster here, and a relative newbie to mythbuntu. Is this only fixed for 9.10? I'm running 9.04 and I still get the same broken dependencies issue. My Mythbuntu Control Centre doens't have the option for the testing repo but I've enabled it in using dpkg-reconfigure mythbuntu-repos. Is this the right way to do it? Here's my Mythtv version:

MythTV Version : 23516
MythTV Branch : branches/release-0-22-fixes
Network Protocol : 50
Library API : 0.22.20091023-1
QT Version : 4.5.0

Any advice greatly appreciated. Steve

[MarcRandolph (mrand)]

Howdy Steve, Yes, I'm sorry to report that the fix is not available in the 9.04 -testing repo.

[Steve Bailey (stevobailey)]

Thanks Marc. Does anyone know if this will ever become available for 9.04? If not I might downgrade to 0.21, if I can work out how! Thanks everyone.

[MarcRandolph (mrand)]

This should be complete cleaned up on the 10.04 alpha 4 disks. I'm sorry to report that this is unlikely to be backported to early releases.
