Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-manager

TEST CASE:
1. use/install kubuntu intrepid system
2. run sudo apt-get install kphotoalbum update-manager
3. run update-manager
4. verify that the upgrade can not be calculated

5. run "update-manager --proposed"
6. verify that the upgrade can now be calculcated (and kphotoalbum gets removed)

The update-manager can't update my system to 09.04 because it can't calculate the upgrade.

I think I solved this by removing "libkipi0". In the process this has also removed digikam and kphotoalbum (probably the programs why this libkipi0 was installed). Now the update proces is downloading packages so it seems to be working now.

However, as far as I know digikam and kphotoalbum are "normal" packages. Or am I wrong about this?

It seems that this is caused because libkipi0 and libkipi6 conflict and kpotoalbum and gwenview require different version of the libs. It seems to get triggered by a workaround added for #360222.

The update has finished and I was able to install digikam again (that also installed kipi-plugins etc). I installed kphotoalbum, but that removed digikam and gwenview. And when I try to install digikam and gwenview it will remove kphotoalbum again.

So it seems that for a normal user like me there is currently no way to have all three programs installed at the same time :(

I am able to reproduce the error with the update-manager in jaunty, 1:0.111.7, and can confirm that the version of update-manager in jaunty-proposed, 1:0.111.9, is able to calculate the upgrade path from intrepid to jaunty, and completed the upgrade. Marking verification-done.
