[Apt-Rpm] Problem with kmp-packages on the openSUSE buildservice

[Johannes Kastl]

Hello,

I use both openSUSE 10.2 and 10.3 on my machine. For a long long time I
have been using apt, even if it is slow as hell with large repomd-repos.
But luckily aptate and local mirroring solves this. But now I
encountered a problem, which seems to be a bug in apt.

I tried to install truecrypt out of the security:/privacy repository on
the opensuse buildservice
(<http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/security:/privacy/>).

But as truecrypt requires a kernel module, it needs a kmp-package. When
using zypper, the kmp-default package gets installed, which fits with
kernel-default being installed.

But when using apt, it wants to install a lot of stuff:
> The following extra packages will be installed:
>   kernel-bigsmp truecrypt-kmp-bigsmp
> The following NEW packages will be installed:
>   kernel-bigsmp truecrypt truecrypt-kmp-bigsmp truecrypt-kmp-default

Keep in mind that when using zypper it just installs truecrypt and
truecrypt-kmp-default, so I would guess the dependencies are correct.

Could someone have a look into this? Or could someone with openSUSE 10.x
just add the repo and try to install truecrypt?

Thanks,
OJ

Ok, I'm just uploading the new version of the kernel, v1.3.33, also
known as "the buggiest kernel ever".
