SDK apt-get update, upgrade, and packages held back?
 

I updated my Maemo5 SDK this evening, from PR1.1 or so, IIRC...

with...

[sbox-FREMANTLE_X86: ~] > fakeroot apt-get update
[sbox-FREMANTLE_X86: ~] > fakeroot apt-get upgrade

and I get the following...

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
csd-base libgssdp-1.0-dev libgstfarsight0.10-0 libgstfarsight0.10-dev

Is this normal? Or is this is a problem? :)

Just uninstalled the old SDK and did a fresh install of the latest SDK... problem solved :)

Problem is not really a problem, its just how apt is designed to work. If an already installed package has an update available and this new version has a new dependency, apt-get update does not automatically fetch that new dependency.

Easiest solution:

apt-get dist-upgrade
