The reverse-dependencies that needed firebird2.0 are fixed and we can proceed. Here's the output of a magical dak command one ftp-master told me: ===================================================================== d...@merkel:~$ dak rm -Rn firebird2.0 Working... done. Will remove the following packages from unstable: firebird2.0 | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | source firebird2.0-classic | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | amd64, armel, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, sparc firebird2.0-common | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | amd64, armel, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, sparc firebird2.0-dev | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | all firebird2.0-doc | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | all firebird2.0-examples | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | all firebird2.0-server-common | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | amd64, armel, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, sparc firebird2.0-super | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | amd64, armel, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, sparc libfbembed2 | 2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-5 | amd64, armel, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, sparc Maintainer: Debian Firebird Group <pkg-firebird-gene...@lists.alioth.debian.org> ------------------- Reason ------------------- ---------------------------------------------- Checking reverse dependencies... # Broken Build-Depends: qt4-x11: firebird2.0-dev Dependency problem found. ===================================================================== The problem seems bogus, though, as http://packages.debian.org/source/unstable/qt4-x11 shows that qt4-x11 build-depends on firebird2.1-dev, not firebird2.0-dev. Perhaps some architecture wasn't built yet? Is this a showstopper for firebird2.0 removal? Thank you for your work.
