No. Please read the Policy. 7.3, 7.4, 7.6, Footnote 53 Breaks: python-pywbem (<< 0.8.0~dev650-1~) Replaces: python-pywbem (<< 0.8.0~dev650-1~) (assuming the renaming happened in 0.8.0~dev650-1) Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
