Bug#624470: gnome-desktop-environment: apt-get dist-upgrade broken

[Nigel Horne]

aptitude dist-upgrade wants to do the same thing, but at least its message may give a better insight into why. It is REALLY insistent I remove Gnome.  Presumably the author uses KDE :-)

bandsman:/tmp# aptitude dist-upgrade
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libcap2-bin{a} libcryptui0a{ab} libgck0{a} libgcr-3-0{a} 
  libmath-round-perl{a} 
The following packages will be upgraded:
  gnome-keyring{b} libdatetime-perl libgnome-keyring0 seahorse 
  seahorse-plugins 
5 packages upgraded, 5 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 1,074 kB/6,790 kB of archives. After unpacking 5,247 kB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libcryptui0a: Conflicts: libcryptui0 but 2.30.1-2 is installed.
  gnome-keyring: Breaks: seahorse-plugins (< 3.0) but 2.30.1-3+b1 is to be installed.

4)     seahorse-plugins
