--- Begin Message ---Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.13.25 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 hoi :) I have a set of packages (*qalc*) which consists of several upstream tarballs and is organized in several debian source packages. There is one core package containing a shared library (libqalculate) which is needed to build all other packages. The non-library source packages need a matching version of the library package in order to build. All upstream packages have one common versioning scheme and I would like to use ${source:Upstream-Version} in the Build-Depends line.

First, you'll have to write that version anyway in the changelog, ok it's another step, but it's not a big deal. And second and most important, this might make the Build-Dependencies variable among invokations of package building, which is not good, as it makes the output less easily reproducible. Also it would pose problems with all other tools parsing Build-Depends. Thus closing this bug report. regards, guillem
