[Bug 874835] Re: [master] upgrade problem with libcupsys2: "E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks"

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package cups - 1.5.0-9

---------------
cups (1.5.0-9) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Till Kamppeter ]
  * debian/patches/do-not-suppress-inputslot-setting-with-empty-ap-d-inputslot.patch:
    CUPS adds the option setting "AP_D_InputSlot=" to every job. This overrides
    the InputSlot option and so the InputSlot setting and even the default
    setting for InputSlot in the PPD get never used, rendering InputSlot
    useless (LP: #872527).
  * debian/patches/cups-avahi.patch: Updated patch from upstream (Red Hat)
    to fix crashes of the CUPS daemon when using the timeout function call
    functionality (LP: #860691, LP: #860498).

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/local/apparmor-profile: Also allow cups to map libraries under
    /usr/local/. (LP: #860765)
  * cups-avahi.patch: Make sure to guard against retrying the Avahi connection
    whilst already doing so. Thanks to Tim Waugh for the patch! (LP: #877967)

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * debian/control: Add Conflicts/Replaces: libcupsys2 to ensure that the apt
    resolver can calculate the upgrade in a multiarch scenario where a old
    libcupsys2 package is installed (LP: #874835)

Bug description:
  On a amd64 natty->oneirc upgrade with libcupsys2 installed the upgrade
  will not work, attached is a apt.log and the dpkg status file.

  TEST CASE:
  1. use AMD64 natty THROWAWAY VM (as the next step will put any real system into a really unmaintainable state)
  2. either use the dpkg-status file attached here via "sudo cp dpkg-status /var/lib/dpkg/status" OR just copy/paste the libcupsys2 package record from the file
  3. run do-release-upgrade
  4. verify that it fails
  5. enable natty-proposed in your /etc/apt/sources.list
  6. run "do-release-upgrade" again and verify that it works this time
