Hi Simon, if you read careful it will bw clear:
">=" means equal or greater than. "=" means only equal to which is a versioned dependency. In Squeeze we won't have ia32-libs (=20080808) but any younger version. So ia32-libs (>= 20080808) works for sure... Update to sid or squeeze and you are done ;-) -- Elimar -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Simon Ruggier [mailto:simo...@gmail.com] Gesendet: Freitag, 5.

If it already has a versioned dependency, why shouldn't the dependency be tightened?
