This is the results of trying to create a Debian Debathena
office head for SIPB.
aptitude install debathena-workstation says
```
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libzephyr4-krb5 : Conflicts: libzephyr4 but 3.1.2-1+b2 is
to be installed
debathena-extra-software : Depends: default-java-plugin
which is a virtual package and is not provided by any
available package
or
icedtea-plugin which is
a virtual package and is not provided by any available
package
libzephyr4 : Conflicts: libzephyr4-krb5 but 3.1.2-1+b2 is
to be installed
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Keep the following packages at their current version:
1) debathena-extra-software [Not Installed]
2) debathena-workstation [Not Installed]
3) libzephyr4 [Not Installed]
```
The java issue is straightforward. As of Debian 9.9,
the packages default-java-plugin and icedtea-plugin are no
longer being built. See the items for "icedtea-web" and
"java-common" at
https://www.debian.org/News/2019/20190427
I don't understand what's going on with libzephyr4-krb5 and
libzephyr4 .
