    Problems upgrading python-xlib

    I have a problem with upgrading python-xlib. I have installed python-xlib 0.12-5.1ubuntu1, but apt-get wants to install python-xlib_0.12-5.1ubuntu1_all.deb. I cannot install it, upgrade it and even remove it. I tried dpkg, apt-get and aptitude. What should I do? This is the only one package that is "not fully installed or removed".

    It is probably due to the same reason: there are some python changes going on in Feisty which will cause some issues until everything is updated, estimated about Tuesday.

    You probably will be able to upgrade then after all the packages are available then


    as a reminder, expect breakages and missing bits on this alpha development version of this OS

        Well, after my previous post, I just realized that is written there, created one directory and python-xlib installed (but have a problem with another package called "debtags" that wants to uninstall adept etc.

          have you refreshed the package list? Today's updates installed (successfully) quite a lot of stuff

            Yep, of course, I refresh all the time, but whatever, I removed debtags together with adept, I dont use it anyway and at least there is no annoying red icon when some new updates are available and also there is less services running so system should be faster
