Package: bulmages
Version: 0.5.9+svn20061021+20061210-1

Hi,

Some binary packages from the bulmages source are wrongly using
virtual packages to describe relationships.

libbulmalib0 Provides and Conflicts with libbulmalib, which makes it
uninstallable in parallel with possible different versions of the
library with a different soname (otherwise the binary package name with
the soname there does not make sense). libbulmalib0-dev is depending
on this virtual package without any real package as a first option.
Also this might cause to use the wrong headers for the wrong library.

The metapackage bulmages is Depending on the virtual package as well,
which is wrong in two ways, first, if it's not depending on it
directly, it should not be listed there, and second, if it depended
on it but you had to list it manually (say it's being dlopen:ed),
then you would need to specify the real package name.

regards,
guillem
