Doxygen in sid/jessie has a dependency on libclang1-3.5 but still looks for libclang.so.1, which was once shipped by that package. That's why I thought the package name must change, to make sure all incidents of this are cleaned up, and any package with dependency on libclang1-3.5 (possibly broken) transitioned to something like libclang2-3.5 (only shipping a libclang-3.5.so.2 and not libclang.so.1). By the way, the doxygen issue was temporarily fixed by the symlink and brltty was able to build; if there is going to be a new upload to try to address this it could perhaps go to experimental first, if that makes it any easier to review and check it?
