  • Bug#1102268: motion: Dependency problem: requires libavdevice59 >=7:5.0

    From afc@21:1/5 to All on Mon Apr 7 01:40:01 2025
    Package: motion
    Version: 4.5.1.2 (the version in debian 12.10)
    Severity: grave
    Justification: renders package unusable
    X-Debbugs-Cc: afc54@comcast.net

    Dear Maintainer,

    * What led up to the situation?

    Trying to install motion on an up-to-date Debian 12.10 system.

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
    ineffective)?

    Trid to install via Aptitude and it requires libavdevice59 >=7:5.0
    but libavdevice 59 is not available. Libavdevice58 is available
    but does not satisfy the dependency after manual installation.
    Libavdevice60 is available but it doesn't satisfy the dependency either.

    * What was the outcome of this action?

    Can't install the package.

    * What outcome did you expect instead?

    That the package would install. It seems that libavdevice60 should
    satisfy the dependency.
