Still don't see the point: if at some point we have a gettext2-shlibs, then it will at some point become essential, too. Period. The "old" gettext-shlibs wouldn't stop being essentia - after all, why should it? The only reason would be "shorter bootstrap time" - but I don't think it would actually work, unless the new gettext is 100% source compatible, we'd still need the old gettext anyway.

I would have thought that the "old" gettext-shlibs would naturally stop being essential
as soon as there is a version of dpkg depending on a newer one.
Where is my misunderstanding ??
