I'm updating the packaging for a software package for debian and ubuntu
(via neurodebian). The src package will build (using cowbuilder) under
ubuntu xenial and debian jessie.
Under stretch, the build fails while updating build-deps:
pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy :
Depends: libvtk5-dev which is a virtual package and is not provided by
any available package
Depends: libpng12-dev which is a virtual package and is not provided
by any available package
It seems that under stretch, libvtk5 has been replaced by libvtk6, and
libpng12 by libpng16.
How can I express this in a single control file? In other words, my
control file has the following (which works under debian/jessie and
ubuntu/xenial):
Under xenial/jessie the following is in debian/control:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5), libqt4-dev (>= 4.3), libqt4-opengl-dev |
libqt4-dev (<< 4.4.0), libqwt5-qt4-dev, libvtk5-dev, libminc-dev,
libqtassistantclient-dev, libpng12-dev, cmake
It seems that I need to have this line be different under debian/stretch:
Under xenial/jessie the following is in debian/control:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5), libqt4-dev (>= 4.3), libqt4-opengl-dev |
libqt4-dev (<< 4.4.0), libqwt5-qt4-dev, libvtk6-dev, libminc-dev,
libqtassistantclient-dev, libpng16-dev, cmake
