Package: php4-spplus
Version: 1.0-6
Severity: serious

In the upload of version 1.0-6 of php4-spplus, I see this in the changelog:

 * debian/rules: removed stupid debian/substvars modification.

And, indeed, the packages no longer depend on the phpapi they were compiled
with, meaning two things:

a) installing only php4-spplus will not have it working (as no matching
   PHP interpreter will be installed first).
b) if php4's phpapi is upgraded, php4-spplus will go on happily being
   installed, despite the fact that it won't work with the new version,
   causing, at the least, serious user confusion.

Please reinstate the "stupid debian/substvars modification", or find some
other way that you deem less "stupid" to make sure you depend on the
correct phpapi-###### virtual package matching with the php4-dev you've
built against.
