I'm on the dizzy branch and I'm working on updating my build tools to use a 
more recent branch.  I have an image built using fido and I'm doing some 
firmware upgrade testing.  I have a package that depends on libcurl and I'm 
getting some strange version dependencies that I'm trying to sort out.

In my package recipe I have "RDEPENDS_${PN} = <number of unrelated packages> 
libcurl" to pull in the runtime depenency on curl.  When I build my image using 
the dizzy branch, libcurl gets built as libcurl5-7.37.1, but when I build my 
image using the fido branch libcurl gets built as libcurl4-7.40.0.  As a 
result, by checking my package dependencies with "opkg info <my_package_name>" 
I see that the package dependency has changed from "libcurl5 (>=7.37.1)" to 
"libcurl4 (>=7.40.1)".

Any ideas why the package name dropped from libcurl5 to libcurl4?  Is this 
something that has been fixed in a more recent branch?  If I'm reading the 
dependencies correctly, opkg should still install libcurl-7.40.0 since my 
package depends on libcurl4, correct?

Thanks,
Bryan Evenson
