Package: libsvm-dev
Version: 3.0-1
Severity: normal

Since there is no libsvm3.0-dev, and multiple versions (e.g. 2.91 and 3.0) of
libsvm-dev could not be co-installed on the system, it really makes little to
no sense to carry additional versioned directory such as
/usr/include/libsvm-3.0 on top of libsvm includes directory.  Or am I missing
something?

Such include directories migration from one location to another might for no
good reason ruin builds of dependent packages which might remain
compatible with multiple versions of libsvm while not foreseeing a variety of
versioned directories coming with new major releases  of libsvm.  Partially it
accounts for FTBFS of pymvpa (#608844, CCed).
