Description

Hi,

On the buster Debian repository, for a few days, the package "libqt5core5a" (version 5.11.1+dfsg-6) provides the virtual package "qtbase-abi-5-11-0" but the package "qgis-providers" depends on the package "qtbase-abi-5-10-0". This difference makes that qgis (version 1:3.2.1+15buster) can not be installed any more...

Here are the QGIS repositories I use:

deb https://qgis.org/debian buster main
deb-src https://qgis.org/debian buster main

The version of Debian I use:

uname -a
Linux mirabelle 4.17.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.17.8-1 (2018-07-20) x86_64 GNU/Linux

lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux testing (buster)
Release: testing
Codename: buster

Thanks

Benoît

History

#1 Updated by Jürgen Fischer over 5 years ago

  • Status changed from Open to Closed
  • Resolution set to invalid

Will fix itself on the next point release - see also Note on download page

#2 Updated by Gerard OpenSideFlanker over 5 years ago

Hi,

I have tried the proposed workaround with the nightly build in debian :

sudo apt-get update
.../...
Réception de:13 http://qgis.org/debian-nightly-release buster/main amd64 Packages [9 885 B]

But the install still fails :

sudo apt-get install qgis-providers qgis

.../...
Les paquets suivants contiennent des dépendances non satisfaites :
qgis-providers : Dépend: qtbase-abi-5-11-0 mais il n'est pas installable
E: Impossible de corriger les problèmes, des paquets défectueux sont en mode « garder en l'état ».

I have seen that the next point is scheduled for 2018/10/26 Will the issue be resolved.
thanks
gérard

Hello,

According to the note on download page the point release has occured but the problem is still present qgis-providers has a dependency on qtbase-abi-5-11-0 package which does not exist any more on buster.

I have also checked the nightly builds that have the same problem

Check again. The packages are not instantly available.

Hi,
There is always a few days between the update of Qt and the update of QGIS for Debian buster repositories. I have successfully updated QGIS and Qt today.

Some weeks ago QGIS reached 3.4.3 but a routine apt update on debian buster removed qgis due to the same dependency failure for qtbase-abi. It's been more than a few days.

Currently the only work around that I can see is to apt-get purge qgis* then change the repository to debian-ltr and revert back to QGIS 2.18.x :-(

Just installed 1:3.4.3+git20190109+b557cc2+15buster (ie. 3 commits behind current release-3_4 branch) from http://qgis.org/debian-nightly-release on buster without issues.
