Hi Markus,
Yes Nils was doing a nmu for me. Unless they are very keen I'll handle

We live in a strange world though, there is probably some other rare
reasons why you could depend on a specific version.

of your package. This could be either because they know it is not just
their system, because you have put in a work-around or so that they know
Debian/upstream is aware of it.

They really should state that if it is their intention. A lot of
those "builder" type programs do it, such as auto* bison and dh-make
(I changed it after someone pointed out the problem with not having
the specific exception).

Both or neither, anyhow its a problem.
I would email the upstream author and ask them that you can see both
licenses and which one is he/she/they using?
procps had something like that and I got my clarification.

omeone wants to package the python
bindings for Nexus? If the library is "locked into" treeviewx then we
have duplicates. If the library is separate, we can just have the
bindings depend on the library in the usual Debian fashion.

Once policy is changed
whole issue is as trivial and pointless as an editor war.
There are packages that need more work, plenty of packages! Why are we
even bothering about this at all?

Problem #1 is Bad Documentation.
There is also a large amount of indirection involved to get things to
happen just the way you want them to. A simple program is pretty
simple.
However I had a lot of difficultly getting the thing to, say, generate a

not sure what to do about
this. I skimmed through the Policy Manual, the Developer's Reference
and the New Maintainer's Guide, but I didn't see anything related to
packages not building. Any advice or direction would be welcome.
