Package: libwine Version: 0.9.2-1 Severity: normal apt-get build-dep wine told me that the build-dependencies of wine-0.9.2-1 could not be satisfied by the Sarge repository. Then I looked at wine_0.9.2-1.dsc and I discovered that xlibs-dev is set to (<< 4.3). However Debian Sarge has xlibs-dev-4.3, which means that the package xlibs-dev-4.3 could NOT be used for compiling Sarge backports. For most of the build-dependencies, there are alternative packages which Sarge could satisfy, however without xlibs-dev, I have to use libxext-dev, which is NOT available in Sarge (this package is only available in etch onwards) and backporting to Sarge therefore becomes impossible.
I noticed that in the previous wine_0.9-1.dsc, xlibs-dev is also specified to be << 4.3 (which therefore make Sarge can's use xlibs-dev again), but it does not have libxext-dev, therefore the overall build-depencies can still be satisfied by the Sarge repository. Therefore is it possible to set xlibs-dev to "<= 4.3" instead to allow Sarge-backporting? Failing that, is it possible to somehow substitute libxext-dev with other packages?
