I think this is a good idea. The attached patch is now posted as https://salsa.debian.org/rhonda/irssi/merge_requests/1 Thanks for maintaining irssi in debian! --dkg
From cf976a2543efcd86ebded7ed614e15bd138c7013 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Kahn Gillmor <d...@fifthhorseman.net> Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2018 01:31:58 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] irssi Provides: irssi-abi-XXX for safer plugin packaging (Closes: #811445) Inspired by https://xorg-team.pages.debian.net/xorg/reference/dependencies.html, Florian Schlichting <f...@debian.org> proposed something like this patch to the irssi packaging. This should make it easier to automatically craft narrower dependencies on the debian packaging for irssi plugins.
