Package: lintian
Hi,
The libav package provides two flavors of libavcodec: libavcodecNN
and libavcodec-extra-NN, with NN being the current soname (the current
transition changes NN from -54 -> 55).
It is not a good idea for packages to depend on libavcodec-extra-NN in
any case. Instead, packages should depend on the libavcodec-extra meta
package that depends on the latest libavcodec-extra-NN package. This
can avoid bugs such as #748546.
Can you please make lintian produce an error if a package depends on
libavcodec-extra-NN and suggest to depend on libavcodec-extra instead?
Thanks,
Reinhard
