Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

Error: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused
by held packages.
-----------------------8<------------------------- It appears that * libvtk9.3 is installed (9.3.0+dfsg1-19.3.0+dfsg1-1) * libvtk9.3 breaks libvtk9.1 < 9.3.0+dfsg1-1 * libvtk9.1t64 provides libvtk9.1 = 9.1.0+really9.1.0+dfsg2-8 * vtk-dicom-tools depends on libvtk9.1t64 >= 9.1.0+really9.1.0+dfsg2 Except for the breaks/provides having different names, this appears to be a fairly straightforward conflict, and shouldn't error out. - Hari

Hi Chris,

Apologies for the hold-up. Over the last several weeks, I have worked on a release in Salsa that addresses this bug, and others.
Currently putting the final touches, after which I expect my co-maintainer to sign off on and upload the new source release in the coming days.

Best regards,
Daniel
