Followup-For: Bug #684773
Control: tag -1 patch

Hi,

I've prepared a NMU for arpack that adds the Breaks: octave3.2 that I
suggested.
Holger Levsen has agreed to sponsor this NMU, but of course the
maintainers are welcome to upload a fixed package themselves.
I'll take care of requesting an unblock once the package has entered
sid.

A NMUdiff is attached, the package can be found here:

+    This fixes some upgrade paths by removing the obsolete octave3.2 (and its
+    triggers) a bit earlier.  dpkg may run trigger processing of a package
+    even if its dependencies are not satisfied.  The octave3.2 triggers may
+    be run in such a state and will fail, aborting the upgrade, even if
+    octave3.2 would be removed later anyway.
+    This is a dpkg bug, but probably won't be fixed for wheezy (see #678848).
