  • Twi issues with trixie (kmail, libfuse3-3)

    From Hans@21:1/5 to All on Mon Apr 7 18:00:02 2025
    Dear maintainers,

    there are two little things I discovered in trixie.

    1. When dist-upgradeng from bookworm to trixie, I discovered that an "apt-get dist-upgrade" will uninstall the package "kmail", but it will neither upgrade nor install kmail again, although it is is in the repo.

    Of course it can be after installed manually, but I suppose, some people might be confused. It is a dependency problem, maybe you want to take a look at it?

    2. I discovered, that the package "libfuse3-3" is no more in trixie, but in bookworm and sid. This will break the installation of package "grub-common"
    and all packages with the dependency to "grub-common".
    Thia was discovered by chance, as the absence of package "libfuse3-3" is breaking a debian-live build. Maybe you might want to take a look at it, too.

    Do not know, if these are real bugs, but I found it worth to mention, as the release of trixie is at short hand.

    Best regards

    Hans

    P.S. I am not subscribed in this list, but on debian-user and debian-testing, so please answer there.

    There are no bugs filed against kmail that would indicate upgrade
    problems. kmail is also installable in trixie. So maybe a good way to
    start would be to debug the problem on debian-user. debian-release is
    the wrong place for that.

    As it is no bug of kmail, of course.

    2. I discovered, that the package "libfuse3-3" is no more in trixie, but
    in
    bookworm and sid. This will break the installation of package
    "grub-common"
    and all packages with the dependency to "grub-common".
    Thia was discovered by chance, as the absence of package "libfuse3-3" is breaking a debian-live build. Maybe you might want to take a look at it, too.
    libfuse3 changes its SONAME and grub-common depends on libfuse3-4.
    libfuse3-3 is expected to be gone from trixie. I am surprised that this
    would break debian-live.

    This I will recheck. As I needed to put a package from bookworm into chroot (grub-common-efi or so, too lazy, to look at it now), maybe it still is searching to libfuse3-3.

    I will check and maybe upgrade all packages in chroot from trixie, then build again hoping of success.

    Cheers

    Thanks for the advice to the new name: I was not aware of this. But why is there still libfuse3-3 in sid? sid is much newer than testing and it should
    not contain older packages than testing!

    Ok, can even not take care of this, so good to me ( I must not understand everything, mustn't I?)

    However, thanks for the help, I will research now.

    Best

    Hans

    So, rechecked in packages.debian.org: There is no libfuse3-4. Maybe it you are wrong?
