Subject: galeon: segfaults in 'experimental'

Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2004 01:14:00 -0800 (PST)

Package:  galeon-common  Version:  1.3.18-1.1  Severity:  grave
Tags:  experimental  I  am  using Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 tracking
Unstable/Experimental, with a 2.6.8-1-686 kernel, libc6 version
is 2.3.2.ds1-18, with Gnome 2.8 from Experimental. Been running
it   more   or  less  trouble-free  i.e.  running  'apt-get  -t
experimental upgrade' with no problems. But on my last 'apt-get
-t experimental upgrade' run apt-get stumbled on the upgrade of
galeon-common.  I have tried purging/removing/downgrading (i.e.
to the version available in Unstable) the whole of galeon along
with  galeon-common but to no avail. Apt-get refuses to perform
any  other  work like installing new packages I want without me
first  attending to this issue with galeon-common. I'm not sure
if  there  is  a  way or ways to have "1 not fully installed or
removed" dealt with via apt-get, aptitude or synaptic. Here are
the error messages: debian:/home/mystarship# apt-get -f install

07b27d3e975425762b44e68913ee176b Description: GNOME web browser
for  advanced  users  A  standards compliant web browser, which
integrates well with the GNOME desktop environment. It does not
include  an  email  client,  irc  bot,  website  designer etc.,
therefore has a moderate resource usage. Internally the program
uses  Mozilla's Gecko rendering engine to display the web pages
so  is  fully feature complete and standards compliant, as well
as   rendering   pages   quickly.   .   This  package  contains
architecture  independent data such as transations and icons. .

greatly appreciated. Regards, Mitch

 I believe this is a bug in scrollkeeper, do you still get the bug?

 Okay, I'm closing the bug.

 The dpkg -P problem is another, and is fixed with the Galeon in
 unstable.
