Description

After changing from repository 2.3 to repository 2.4, running apt-get upgrade tries to upgrade rudder-cfengine-community and rudder-policy-templates
and don't upgrade rudder-server-root and rudder-webapp

  • rudder-cfengine-community and rudder-policy-templates should not be upgraded and be replaced by rudder-agent and rudder-techniques
  • rudder-server-root and rudder-webapp should be upgraded
The following packages have been kept back:
  rudder-server-root rudder-webapp
The following packages will be upgraded:
  rudder-cfengine-community rudder-inventory-endpoint rudder-inventory-ldap rudder-jetty rudder-policy-templates rudder-reports
6 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.

it should works like aptitude upgrade, which works perfectly fine:

The following NEW packages will be installed:
  rudder-agent{a} rudder-techniques{a} uuid-runtime{a} 
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  rudder-cfengine-community{u} rudder-policy-templates{u} 
The following packages will be upgraded:
 rudder-inventory-endpoint rudder-inventory-ldap rudder-jetty rudder-reports rudder-server-root rudder-webapp 
6 packages upgraded, 3 newly installed, 2 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

when using apt-get dist-upgrade it looks better,

  • rudder-cfengine-community is replaced by rudder-agent
  • rudder-server-root is upgraded
  • rudder-webapp is still not upgraded
  • and rudder-policy-templates is still not replace by rudder-techniques
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  rudder-cfengine-community
The following NEW packages will be installed:
 rudder-agent uuid-runtime
The following packages have been kept back:

As it is described by apt-get dist-upgrade message, rudder-policy-templates has not been replaced by rudder-techniques, neither rudder-cfengine-community by rudder-agent but the both of these packages are installed at the same time. besides rudder-webapp seems to be updated but apt-get still considers this package as not updated:

It may have a instruction missing in debian/control to declare rudder-cfengine-community and rudder-policy-templates to be removed

It seems that for apt-get, renaming packages needs the use of dummy transitional packages, like described here: http://wiki.debian.org/Renaming_a_Package

I have added two folder in order to build dummy packages for debian: rudder-cfengine-community and rudder-policy-templates.

The use of dummy packages for rudder-cfengine-community and rudder-policy-templates seems to works for the use of apt-get. We can consider this issue as finished.

This looks fine, except for some weirdness introduced in the README and copyright files for rudder-policy-templates (I checked the diff from the 2.3 branch). Fixed in a commit just now.
