Hi there,
Needed a fresh install on my laptop; everything went smooth, but when I started installing my usual stuff, the first shock came when attempting to install wine:i386:Then, the next shock came when attempting to install Qt Creator:This is a biggie for me... So big that I had to get the qt-creator-opensource-linux-x86_64-13.0.2.run from the Qt site and install it, which I don't like to do (versioning problems when configuring Kits). When looking at tracker pages of packages that I miss, I keep seeing problems with unsolvable dependencies. Blender and 0ad (the only game that I used to play occasionally) have gone since longer time, now these two; if KiCad and FreeCad will also be removed, I can just as well stop computing (exaggerating a little here: I still have the desktop in a usable state ![:wink:]( "Wink")
).
This state of things has pushed me to consider going back to Stable, and try back-ports for a newer kernel to keep the sound working on my laptop. But here is the question that worries me: what if at the time when Trixie is to become Stable, the current dependency problems will still be unfixed? Will the older working Bookworm packages be kept (dragging older dependencies along), or will the affected packages be missing?
