I believe (as I just now posted in a separate mail) it is doable by first declaring with version and then without version. But possibly that is not strict enough, because recently APT gained support for versioned virtual packages. Better would be that you change to use a different name for the virtual package, and then declare that virtual package last - like this: Depends: libsocl-1.2-0 (= 1.2.3+dfsg-3) | libsocl-any-1.2-0 - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
