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.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  gnomesword: Depends: libgtkhtml3.8-15 (>= 3.13.5) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

  * debian/patches/01_libgnomeprint.patch:
    - Fix build, add libgnomeprint in configure.in

  * debian/patches/02_fix_gtkhtml_print.patch:
    - Fix compile errors about gtkhtml print

What do these have to do with fixing the unmet deps?

[Jonh Wendell (wendell)]

Nothing. Think like that: This upload fixes this and others bugs.

New upstream version, 2.2.2.1 fixes both issues, but talking with LaserJock on irc, he said to not think about new upstream version. :(

What's the problem in getting new upstream version?

[Luke Yelavich (themuso)]

At this point, in order to get a new upstream version in, one has to request a freeze exception, which is not a good idea considering how close to beta we are.

[Jonh Wendell (wendell)]

Hi. According with https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-March/000262.html , freeze is for main, not for universe, right?

[Luke Yelavich (themuso)]

Thats beta freeze. I am talking about upstream version freeze, which came into effect for Universe in February. Once the beta is released, Universe will then be in a hard freeze.

Anyway, I've uploaded a new package with your patch included.

Thanks.

Correction, hard freeze is in fact the final week before release, and not once beta is released.

[Andrzej Mendel-Nykorowycz (kelner)]

When will this version get into Universe?

[Luke Yelavich (themuso)]

When a distro manager has approved it to be built and released to the archives.
