Actually, currently 'diet-libc-dev' is hardcoded in the version on mentors, which doesn't exist at all, so this won't migrate to testing at all because this dependency can't be fulfilled. dietlibc-dev would also be wrong, since 'dietlibc' is the source package name and Built-Using requires source packages, not binary packages. Hmmm, I should probably write a patch for debhelper so that people can add Built-Using-From: dietlibc-dev and dh_gencontrol automatically replaces that by Built-Using: dietlibc (= ...). That would make life so much easier... Regards, Christian
