Redmine on Debian 11 unmet dependencies.
Added by Marcel V about 1 year ago
I'm trying to deploy Redmine 5 on Debian 11. I ran sudo apt install redmine redmine-mysql
with the following result:
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: redmine : Depends: ruby-actionpack-action-caching (>= 1.2.2~) but 1.2.1-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-commonmarker (>= 0.23.1~) but 0.21.0-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-csv (>= 3.2.0~) Depends: ruby-task-list (>= 2.3.2~) but 2.3.1-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-html-pipeline (>= 2.13.2~) but 2.12.3-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-i18n (>= 1.10.0~) but 1.8.8-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-mini-magick (>= 4.11.0~) but 4.10.1-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-net-ldap (>= 0.17.0~) but 0.16.1-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-nokogiri (>= 1.13.5~) but 1.11.1+dfsg-2 is to be installed Depends: ruby-rails (>= 2:6.1.7~) but 2:6.0.3.7+dfsg-2+deb11u2 is to be installed Depends: ruby-roadie-rails (>= 3.0.0~) but 2.1.1-2 is to be installed Depends: ruby-rotp (>= 5.0.0~) but 2.1.1+dfsg-1.1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-rouge (>= 3.28.0~) but 3.21.0-1 is to be installed Depends: ruby-sanitize (>= 6.0~) but 5.2.1-2 is to be installed Depends: ruby-zip (>= 2.3.0~) but 2.0.0-2 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I have deployed several other applications in the same server, among them Open Project. My guess is Open Project is using versions of ruby related programs that are incompatible with Redmine. Can anyone confirm if this is the case, and if so, whether I need to remove Open Project before I can install Redmine? The plan is to replace Open Project with Redmine, but if possible I would like to do this gradually, as there are some users still using Open Project. Other applications I run in this server: Nextcloud, Gitea, and Suitecrm.
Thank you for your help.

To answer myself for future reference. The problem seems to have been unrelated to Open Project. I ended up deploying by following installation instructions on redmine.org. I still don't understand why a Debian package would be available if it doesn't work though. Redmine is working fine.
