Debdiff #3 fixes mailody to link against -lqca-qt3 instead of -lqca.

Important: even though it's -2ubuntu2, the original Debian package
(which is the current Debian version) is -1. The previous uploader
erroneously followed -1 with -2ubuntu1.

** Attachment added: "mailody_0.5.0-2ubuntu2.debdiff"

** Description changed:

  The QCA library (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qca) is currently
  used by:
  
  - psi
  - mailody
  
  The problem that will arise with the sync is: QCA1 is a Qt3 library used
  by Qt3 applications; QCA2 is a Qt4 library used by Qt4 applications.
  Both, however, are managed in Debian as the same source package (qca;
  http://packages.qa.debian.org/q/qca.html) and their binaries are
  conflicting (libqca.so). QCA1 programs cannot be easily ported to QCA2.
  
  While the Debian source package for QCA2 is qca, the Ubuntu source
  package qca2 has spent quite some time in NEW. It should probably be
  nuked.
  
  Psi version 0.11 RC2 uses Qt4 and requires QCA2 version 2.0.0 beta7 -
  the version currently in Debian experimental. So we can sync that and
  package Psi. (Bug #120315 is dedicated to packaging Psi 0.11).
  
  Mailody is a more complicated case, there is no public Qt4/QCA2 release
  yet, although porting efforts are underway. I will inquire toma about
  their status.
  
  For now, as a temporary solution until the Qt4 versions are accepted
  into Ubuntu, we can do the following:
  
  1. Move source package qca to another name (changing the library name 
correspondingly).
  2. Rebuild current versions of psi and mailody against the new package.
  3. Sync qca_2.0.0~beta7 from Debian.
- 4. Upgrade psi from 0.10 to 0.11~rc2.
+ 4. Upgrade psi from 0.10 to 0.11~rc2 (bug #120315).
