Well, actually, after digging into the git repository, I remembered that the versioned dependency was introduced by me for a previous transition... :-/ http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=apt-listbugs/apt-listbugs.git;a=commitdiff;h=8da1d43065b8427abe52e4c93f9ee9dfe369f0ff In other words, in that occasion, I didn't think about people who could wish to backport apt-listbugs. So maybe, I could do the same now and update the version. On the other hand, keeping the old version as a useful indication for potential backporters looks like a good idea. > > In any case, using versioned deps is probably the safe solution here. Good, if what I discovered doesn't change the conclusion, I'll keep the versioned dependency. Thanks a lot for your input. -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/frx-gpg-key-transition-2010.txt New GnuPG key, see the transition document! .....................................................
