Bug Description

Binary package hint: kubuntu-debug-installer

I'm trying to install debug symbols for kmail, but it fails.

It apparently tries to install
  kmail-dbgsym libqtgui4-dbgsym kdelibs5-dbg libqtcore4-dbgsym
(3 -dbgsym, 1 -dbg), but fails:
  "The following packages block the installation: kdelibs5-dbg"

When manually apt-get installing this list, I get:
$ LANG=C sudo apt-get install kmail-dbgsym libqtgui4-dbgsym kdelibs5-dbg libqtcore4-dbgsym
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kdelibs5-dbg: Depends: libqt4-dbg (>= 4.4.3) but it is not going to be installed

Then, adding it:
$ LANG=C sudo apt-get install kmail-dbgsym libqtgui4-dbgsym kdelibs5-dbg libqtcore4-dbgsym libqt4-dbg
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libqtcore4-dbgsym: Conflicts: libqt4-dbg but 4:4.6.2-0ubuntu2 is to be installed
  libqtgui4-dbgsym: Conflicts: libqt4-dbg but 4:4.6.2-0ubuntu2 is to be installed

I guess kubuntu-debug-installer should stick to using "dbgsym" or "dbg" packages only, or sort them when picking from alternatives.

This bug was fixed in the package kubuntu-debug-installer - 10.04ubuntu4

---------------
kubuntu-debug-installer (10.04ubuntu4) lucid; urgency=low

  * Don't offer installation of already installed packages (LP: #538543)
  * Changer lookup order (dbgsym first, dbg last). This way the user does not
    end up with a mixed setup of dbgsym and dbg. Of course this only works if
    the user does not install -dbg manually! Unfortunately a more specific
    approach wil have to wait for libqapt or the likes, since the current
    query design would make the lookups too expensive (LP: #540505)
