Package: gkrellmwho2
Version: 0.2.7-2
Severity: serious
User: [email protected]
Usertags: depends-on-build-essential-package-without-using-version
The package declares a depends on a build essential package without
using a versioned depends. Packages do not have to build-depend on any
package included in build-essential. It is the responsibility of
anyone building packages to have all build-essential packages
installed. The only reason for an explicit dependency on a package
included in build-essential is if a particular version of that package
is required, in which case the dependency should include the version.
Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 4.2 (Package relationships) for
details.
Filed as serious, since this will currently have this package
rejected. See
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/10/msg00004.html
for details.
