Package: libplplot-ada Version: 5.9.8-2 Severity: serious Justification: violation of Debian Policy for Ada[1]
[1] http://people.debian.org/~lbrenta/debian-ada-policy.html Finally the violation most difficult to explain in a few words. The Debian Policy for Ada mandates that the name of a development package contain a number which we call the "aliversion" number. This number must change whenever the contents of any of the .ali files in the package changes (which happens, most notably, whenever recompiling the with a new major version of the compiler). The reason for having an "aliversion" number in the package *name* is to prevent libplplot-ada to cause another package to FTBFS (the dreaded "indirect FTBFS scenario" explained in [1]). Therefore, please: - rename libplplot-ada to libplplotada1-dev or something similar (the exact name does not matter as long as it contains an "aliversion" number); - Add Conflict: with and Replaces: libplplot-ada -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
