Renaming a -dev package because the soname changed is bad. The only reason

The main reason the soname is in the -dev package name is that the
simple 'libzmq-dev' is part of the zeromq package. But yes, it could
have remain as libzmq3-dev even if it looks inconsistent with libzm5.

What I think should happen here is:
The package is renamed back to libzmq3-dev, so rdeps can be binNMUed.
A provides can be added for the packages that changed, since their
build-deps are not versioned. After libzmq5-dev is decrufted, they will be
fine.
Then the transition can complete.
How does that sound?
I see and agree. Attached the next upload just to be sure. Please ACK
it and I'll upload it.
Sorry for the extra round,
Looks good. No problem and thanks for reacting that fast!
Cheers,
Emilio
