I think this would be a problem for two reasons: - might prevent moving from one package to the other (if you only have packages depending on libglib1.2 installed, you might not move from libglib1.2 to libglib1.2ldbl on upgrades) - versions in dependencies wouldn't be honored anymore (as versionned provides aren't supported) It would be best for debian-multimedia to do the same transition and update debs for etch / lenny / sid when these dists are updated. -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
