Package: aptitude
Version: 0.8.13-5+b1
Severity: normal
When I choose to upgrade swig from the TUI, I get the incorrect message
------------------------------------------------------------
swig4.0 (remove, 4.1.0-0.3) will be automatically removed because of dependency
errors:
------------------------------------------------------------
with nothing else.
With more details:
I currently have
i swig 4.1.0-0.3 4.2.0-1
Over this line, I type '+', so that I get:
aptitude 0.8.13 @ cventin Disk: -184 kB DL: 1429 kB
[...]
iu swig +5509 kB 4.1.0-0.3 4.2.0-1
Now, I type 'g', and I get:
--\ Packages to be upgraded (1)
iu swig +5509 kB 4.1.0-0.3 4.2.0-1
--\ Packages being deleted due to unsatisfied dependencies (1)
idA swig4.0 -5693 kB 4.1.0-0.3 4.1.0-0.3
--\ Packages being held back (15)
[...]
Over the swig line, I get:
------------------------------------------------------------
swig (upgrade, 4.1.0-0.3 -> 4.2.0-1) will be upgraded from version 4.1.0-0.3 to
version 4.2.0-1.
------------------------------------------------------------
Over the swig4.0 line, I get:
------------------------------------------------------------
swig4.0 (remove, 4.1.0-0.3) will be automatically removed because of dependency
errors:
------------------------------------------------------------
with nothing else. Without any error message, this doesn't make sense.
Then, when I type ':' over the swig4.0 line, this message changes to:
------------------------------------------------------------
swig4.0 (remove, 4.1.0-0.3) was installed automatically; it is being removed
because all of the packages which depend upon it are being removed:
* swig (upgrade, 4.1.0-0.3 -> 4.2.0-1) depends on swig4.0 (>= 4.1.0-0.3)
(provided by swig4.0:i386 4.1.0-0.3)
------------------------------------------------------------
Now this is almost correct. I don't understand the ":i386". This is
a configured foreign architecture on this machine, but this package
is not installed:
cventin:~> dpkg -l | grep swig
ii swig 4.1.0-0.3 all Generate scripting interfaces to C/C++ code
ii swig4.0 4.1.0-0.3 amd64 Generate scripting interfaces to C/C++ code
Note that with the currently installed swig package:

Replaces: swig2.0

and with the new version:

Replaces: swig4.0
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.34), libgcc-s1 (>= 3.0), libpcre2-8-0 (>= 10.22), libstdc++6 (>= 13.1)
