This is odd. libc-client-dev is a virtual package provided by 
libc-clientXXX-dev which should be resolved by your build script. I know 
for a fact that pbuilder used with cowdancer resolves the virtual 
package properly.

What build system caused this error? I suspect the bug is in that build 
system.


Having said that (and reading libpkg-doc recommendations), I acknowledge 
that build-depending on the virtual package might be a sign that the 
libc-client library is so stable that it might make better sense to 
package its -dev package unversioned. I have forked this bug-report for 
that reason.
