Can anyone think of why it would be doing this? Hi Mario, This issue is a known bug in the PPA code that generates archive indexes, see https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/165230. As the schooltool's zope3 package, you use 'Pre-depends' in your package and LP doesn't include it in the indexes, once it's installed apt gets confused by this difference (local metadata and ppa-index metadata), assumes the package has changed and tries to install it again. BTW, isn't 'Pre-Depends: debconf' unnecessary ? Anyway, If you can safely avoid the use of the following control-fields in your packages until we get our code fixed, installations from your PPA will be fine * Source::Build-Conflicts * Source::Build-Conflicts-Indep * Binary::Pre-depends * Binary::Recommends * Binary::Enhances * Binary::Breaks * Binary::Essential See https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/172308 for more information on this task. Sorry for this inconvenience, we will be working to get it fixed ASAP. [] -- Celso Providelo <celso.providelo@xxxxxxxxx>
