What are you getting conflicts on? Unless you’re pulling from Sid, and did something fun like upgrading libc6, you shouldn’t see version conflicts if everything was installed via apt.
- chubot 3y agoIt hasn't happened to me in a long time, but when I first started using Debian/Ubuntu I ran into it and was confused Debian does have Conflicts package metadata - https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#conflicting-binary-packages-conflicts https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.ht... So in theory I don't like it, but I now better understand the possible reasons for it, and I haven't run into it recently I think there is room for other systems that don't have this problem, but Debian is good at what it does, and you can build other things on top of it
