Not sure how tight it should be. I see it's already about as tight as it could be. > Possibly some Breaks entries are also warranted? After sleeping on this: I don't think we need them. The list of modules is compiled into libwx-perl at build time, so the older version of libwx-perl should work with newer versions of wxwidgets2.8, the media functionality will just not be there. The other way around is easy: we just need the newer libwx-perl to depend on a libalien-wxwidgets-perl package version that has the media module information, and that should pull in the necessary wxwidgets2.8 libraries too. So: 1) upload libalien-wxwidgets-perl with build and runtime dependencies on libwxgtk-media2.8-dev 2) upload libwx-perl with a versioned build (and runtime? see below) dependency on that I may get around to actually doing this if I find the time, but obviously anybody is free to beat me to it. Side note: I'm not sure if the modules in the Wx::build namespace are really supposed to go in the binary package. AFAICS they are only used for the package build. I checked a couple of reverse dependencies, and nothing seems to be actually using those. But it's probably safer to leave them there, and keep the runtime dependency on libalien-wxwidgets-perl (but make it versioned too.) -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
