I guess I can add "Breaks" field to expect (or expect-dev). This way upgrading expect will cause expectk and xsmbrowser removal.

I'll do that after some consultation with the release team. Cheers! -- Sergei Golovan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
