Updating to libxtables9 (1.4.16.3-3) + iptables (1.4.16.3-3) breaks iptables.
There is a duplicate file in both packages.

no more in the actual path, what was the intention of this plugin.
Rolling back and pinning both packages solved this for me.
Your have to restart Nautilus.

Hmm!
Google Earth and ia32libs.
I haven't been able to run Google Earth on my SID installs since using SMXI to install Nvidia.
The ia32libs, and nvidia glx-ia32 from synaptic break the SMXI Nvidia (304.60)?
I have been using multiarch though. It might be worth a try?

Re: LMDE BREAKAGES - (Tracking SID!) - Jul 19th
Steve,
i think it's the multiarch support
i think it's the multiarch support
Code: Select all
v4l-utils (0.8.9-1) unstable; urgency=low
Beginning with the Wheezy release libv4l-0 will support multiarch.
As a result of the new triplet library directory you need to update
any preload paths. For example on an i386 system the following line
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so
must be changed into
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so
Another effect of the multiarch transition is the deprecation of the
lib32v4l-0 package to preload the i386 version of libv4l on amd64
systems. This preloading is necessary for some webcams to work properly
with Skype. To preload libv4l on Wheezy you have to install the i386
version of libv4l-0 the multiarch way:
dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get install libv4l-0:i386
Now you can preload the library from the new location:
Re: LMDE BREAKAGES - (Tracking SID!) - Jul 19th
May give it a go - new (ish) job involves working shifts, so don't have the time to play like I used too. Need time to clonezilla etc etc. Will pin for now. Not bothered about removing most of the packages, but Crossover means I will never have to boot Windows ever again (to use Excel), so don't want to lose that.
Cheers
Steve

Re: LMDE BREAKAGES - (Tracking SID!) - Jul 19th
How often does Cinnamon break in Sid? I want to do a Sid install with Cinnamon, but I don't want Cinnamon to continuously break. It appears that there's an actual debian sid package for cinnamon - http://packages.debian.org/sid/main/cinnamon. I don't know if this package will be made to work with newer releases of gnome because it is made for sid. I also don't know if I'd be better off simply installing cinnamon from the mint repos. The debian packages appear to be in their early stages, as there is no nemo (I guess they probably work with nautilus). Anyway, I'm basically wondering how you'd suggest using Cinnamon with Sid (if at all) to avoid breakages.
Edit: the debian cinnamon packages do use nautilus for the desktop

Re: LMDE BREAKAGES - (Tracking SID!) - Jul 19th
Thank you GeneC. Also, that's a very nice desktop.
Edit: I've installed LMDE on my laptop and am now updating from UP 4 to 5. I think I liked it better back when UP were released once a month - you needed to download a lot less stuff for each update pack.

Re: LMDE BREAKAGES - (Tracking SID!) - Jul 19th
just a word of warning (regarding cinnamon) it happened already and can/will happen again
Re: LMDE BREAKAGES - (Tracking SID!) - Jul 19th
I've decided that I'll go with sid and, if Gnome Shell or/and Cinnamon break, I'll use MATE (I installed the 201204 ISO with MATE and Cinnamon).
