#242943 — I'm getting a dependencies error when trying to install roundcube 1.5.1 on my bullseye machine

I'm running bullseye with roundcube version 1.4.11 currently installed. 
I am trying to upgrade to version 1.5.1.

I followed the instructions at "SimpleBackportCreation" at 
https://wiki.debian.org/SimpleBackportCreation

Everything went fine until the very last step:

===========

$ sudo apt-get install ../roundcube_*_*.deb

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'roundcube' instead of 
'../roundcube_1.5.1+dfsg-1_all.deb'
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  roundcube : Depends: roundcube-core (= 1.5.1+dfsg-1) but 
1.4.11+dfsg.1-4 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

============


I tried "sudo apt-get remove roundcube" but that didn't help.

Can someone please tell me how I might resolve this?

I've not used apt to install packages from files but can you put
../roundcube*.deb?

You need to install both roundcube and roundcube-core from your local
build.

If mt first suggestion doesn't work, try installing roundcube-core
first.

If you haven't built roundcube-core then you need to do that first.

Not sure why you used this pattern:
> $ sudo apt-get install ../roundcube_*_*.deb
but
> $ sudo apt-get install ../roundcube-core_*_*.deb
matches for roundcube-core

Thanks but I just figured it out literally 30 seconds ago. Had to do the 
following:

1) Get a list of all roundcube pacakges:

dpkg -l | grep roundcube

2) For each of the older, uwanted packages, do:

sudo apt-get remove <package_name>

3) Now, to install roundcube, you first have to install roundcube-core 
.deb package first. So the command given in the tutorial won't work. But 
you can't install roundcube-core until you install its dependencies:

sudo apt-get install ../roundcube-mysql_*_*.deb
sudo apt-get install ../roundcube-sqlite3_*_*.deb
sudo apt-get install ../roundcube-pgsql_*_*.deb

Note that above commands assume you are in the directory that the 
tutorial places you into.


4) No you can install roundcube-core

sudo apt-get install ../roundcube-core_*_*.deb

5) And now you can install the plain ol' "roundcube" package:

sudo apt-get install ../roundcube_*_*.deb

6) Finally, install the other misc. package:

sudo apt-get install ../roundcube-plugins_*_*.deb

apt-get autoremove roundcube might have removed the dependencies.

You might want to apt-mark auto the dependencies, currently they're set
to manual.

And I'd create a local repo to hold the packages using apt-ftparchive -
then, in future, all you'd need to do is update the repo and do apt-get
upgrade to update the roundcube version after you'd built it.

Yes, that would have worked.

I've also seen reprepro suggested for local repositories, though it's 
probably overkill just for a few packages.

Kind regards,
Andrei
