Description

Although not much different from content i just made the switch from the QGIS 1.9 dev. version to the 2.0 stable to have the new nice starting screen ;)
I removed all packages and then added the following sources to my sources.list

deb     http://qgis.org/debian wheezy main
deb-src http://qgis.org/debian wheezy main

(from http://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#linux). No other sources are activated.
Then i downloaded and installed QGIS 2.0 again.

QGIS 2.0 installs just fine, but the python-qgis and python-qgis-common packages have issues:

> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
> python-qgis : Depends: python-qgis-common (= 2.0.1~wheezy1) but it is not installable
> Depends: sip-api-8.1 but it is not installable
> E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I was able to run everything just fine with the debian-nightly sources beforehand, but now the python-qgis bindings are always broken and point to this virtual package (sip-api-8.1). Python-sip is of course installed.

python-sip version 4.15.1-1

Hi. I am facing the same problem with Debian Wheezy i386. Checking the repositories it seems that the following packages are still at 1.8.0-3 (for i386):

python-qgis
libqgis-dev
qgis-mapserver
qgis-sqlanywhere
qgis
qgis-plugin-globe
qgis-plugin-grass
qgis-providers

The Debian sources now show qgis 2.0.1-2+wheezy as source at least for me.
However the python-qgis bindings still can not be installed due to a depending sip-api-8.1

works fine for me. The dependency sip-api-8.1 is provided by python-sip.

Strange, maybe because iam using a newer version? I could try to downgrade to your version and see if this helps for now.

EDIT:
Okay, manually downgrading to 4.13.3-2 at least resolved the sip-api-8.1 error. But now a lot of other dependencies are bugging around. I think it might be because i am using the official Debian testing sources (which were previously known as Wheezy).
Are there any sources for the new debian testing -> jessie ?

The packages are meant for wheezy. Try the jessie packages (which are likely to break at some point, when jessie evolves - same for the sid packages).
