Please delete libmagic1 1:5.45-2 from the archive (in favor of libmagic1t64 1:5.45-3)

[Anders Kaseorg]

As part of the 64-bit time_t transition, libmagic1 was renamed to libmagic1t64 in https://bugs.debian.org/1063113. However, libmagic1 1:5.45-2 is still in the archive, despite being non-installable:

# apt-get install libmagic1

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libmagic1 : Depends: libmagic-mgc (= 1:5.45-2) but 1:5.45-3 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Please delete libmagic1 from the archive, so that libmagic1t64 1:5.45-3 can take over this role (it’s already marked Provides: libmagic1 (= 1:5.45-3)).

It seems like 1:5.45-3 was deleted instead of 1:5.45-2? That resolves the immediate issue, I guess, but it’s probably not the intended resolution.

Same problem is back now that 1:5.45-3build1 is uploaded and 1:5.45-2 still isn’t deleted.

[Anders Kaseorg (andersk)]

Seems resolved.
