Bug Description

$ uname -a
 Linux XXXXXXX 3.2.0-49-generic #75-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 18 17:39:32 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 $ lsb_release -rd
 Description: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
 Release: 12.04

Added ppa:shnatsel/dnscrypt and apt-get update'd successfully. No errors found.
Tried "apt-get install dnscrypt-proxy" and got a dependency but not installable error on "libsodium4".
Also tried to manually download amd64 .deb files for Precise and dpkg -i them. Same problem.
Happens both for dnscrypt-proxy and libsodium-dev packages.

Synaptic reports "you have broken packages" and dnscrypt-proxy and libsodium-dev are listed as such. In the PPA source I can only see those two packages. No trace of libsodium4 in any source.

Looks like that libsodium4 should also be packaged in the PPA, at least for Precise.
I've found it packaged, but only for Raring and Saucy at https://launchpad.net/~xuzhen666/+archive/dnscrypt in case it's useful. But no Precise debs :( .

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode.

To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1200924/+editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.

Libsodium is fully packaged in my PPA and I can install it on Precise. In fact I'm running dnscrypt from my PPA myself on Precise and a friend of mine also does, so we cannot reproduce the bug. Could you provide the full error logs?

FYI, "libsodium4" is a binary package while the PPA displays only source package by default. The .deb can be found at https://launchpad.net/~shnatsel/+archive/dnscrypt/+files/libsodium4_0.4.1-0%7Eshnatsel1%7Eprecise1_amd64.deb or https://launchpad.net/~shnatsel/+archive/dnscrypt/+files/libsodium4_0.4.1-0%7Eshnatsel1%7Eprecise1_i386.deb depending on the architecture.

Finally, this is a bug in my (unofficial) packages which are not affiliated with Ubuntu. This bug is invalid for Ubuntu.
