I finally got around to doing this, and I ran into a subtle issue. launchpad-dependencies depends on python2.5-imaging, and the python-imaging package provides python2.5-imaging. However, when I add (>= 1.1.7) to launchpad-dependencies' debian/control file, it complains that it python2.5-imaging is not installed. Should python-imaging's Provides list be changed somehow, or should I just change launchpad-dependecies to depend on python-imaging instead of python2.5-imaging? -Edwin _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
