On d-u today alsa-base will be removed on my 32 bit xfce....

I will wait awhile

[devil]

Yes, kmod wants to kick it.

Here there was no problem with d-u on a 32-bit LXDE system, but on 64-bit I see this:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  gcc-4.9 linux-headers-3.15-rc3-siduction-amd64 linux-headers-siduction-amd64


So that one will wait.

not for me, alsa-base will still be removed

[piper]

You can either wait for your repo to sync, or change repo

[michaa7]

Problem persists here on 32 bit. The german repo usually *is* fast in syncing. BTW, which new alsa-base version avoids the conflict?

# apt-cache policy alsa-base
alsa-base:
  Installiert:           1.0.25+3
  Installationskandidat: 1.0.25+3
  Versionstabelle:
*** 1.0.25+3 0
        900 http://http.debian.net/debian/ sid/main i386 Packages
        500 http://ftp2.de.debian.org/debian/ testing/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1.0.25+3~deb7u1 0
        500 http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/ stable/main i386 Packages

EDIT://
How do you read this bug report?
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=746799

...
* Merged the few useful directives from the alsa-base package and added
    a versioned Breaks to force it to be unistalled.

Just doing d-u on two 64 bit machines here and there is no kmod updating on any of them and no problems with alsa-base either

[vilde]

Problem still here so I did

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt-mark hold alsa-base and then d-u, kmod was hold back and not updated. after kompleted  d-u I did

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt-mark unhold alsa-base

Sorry for wrong spelling but as I wrote in another thread, spellchecking is still not working for me in this forum and only here

[michaa7]

thanks towo, this answers my question. so new kmod (and udev) *replaces* alsa-base which now can go.

[vilde]

Thank you towo

[ReinerS]

Hier wird alsa-base jetzt auch entfernt.

Grüße

Reiner

@ ReinerS,  You shall let alsa-base go, it's not used anymore
