#3

I had the same problem a few days ago. I was instructed to not allow it to do a "partial upgrade". Now, I have three packages in "held back" status, but no problems with gconf2.

Same here. I did a dist upgrade. Waiting for the new gconf2.

no bad issue with "sid" gconf2

#6

Oh come on guys, this is not earth shaking and will probably be on its way within 24hrs.

Are there any problems scanning with the current setup (I do not have a scanner).

Well, it's been a week for tomboy.

Well, with gconf touching almost everything Gnome, I'll bet there will be a lot of updates when it finally hits......

Starks said: Well, it's been a week for tomboy.

This is true.

It is also true that we are testing 10.10. We are not testing 10.10 with different versions of stuff than it is supposed to run.

Now don't jump my butt. I know I have done these things too. I also have at least one install that is not messed with.

I do not have tomboy sitting there on this install, for instance, as it is not installed. I have never used it and do not want it on here as I have enough clutter as it is. The other four installs are waiting patiently for it to clear.

#11

we aren't even to the first daily yet , its hardly the time to panic about a couple of held back packages .

Oh I don't know.

We could pair off in bunches and scatter out in groups.

#13

Nothing drives me more nuts than just watching those updates sit there...arg!

#16

Gconf2 has landed, fixed up tomboy, simple-scan, update-notifier, ubuntu-desktop (my held back packages)

#17

don't use maverick so early, it's just opened and people were busy at UDS and travelling, starting opening bugs now about what is not installable yet on maverick is creating work rather than being useful.

Interesting. When is the bug season open then?

#21

Was a fix found, or did everyone just decide to wait a while?

I suppose the easiest thing will be to do a clean install of a fresh image (after the gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad mess is resolved).
