libtclcl1-dev is the new name of tclcl-dev, as tclcl has shared library now. Mark libtclcl1-dev replace and provide tclcl-dev ? Should I request ftp-master to remove tclcl-dev or waiting for its auto removing?

I do not know the package (I discovered the bug by an automated test), but the right solution in cases like this is usually to replace, provide, and also to conflict with tclcl-dev. Should I request ftp-master to remove tclcl-dev or waiting for its auto removing? Please ask for removal once you have checked that noone else depends on tclcl-dev, or if your new package provides the old one. -Ralf. -- Ralf Treinen Laboratoire Preuves, Programmes et Systèmes Université Paris Diderot, Paris, France. http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~treinen/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
