Thanks for pinging us! I am now preparing an updated package that makes ghostscript depend on gs-common >= 8.62.dfsg.1-3.1. This means we need to keep the dummy transitional gs-common around until Lenny+1 is released, but I see no other way to ensure that the fix for #495703 is actually applied. @Niko: you mention that this would cause a circular dependency. I believe that is not the case when the dependency is versioned and newer than the versioned conflict. If I misunderstood, then please elaborate. Kind regards, and thanks for all the help with this one! - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkkQOwYACgkQn7DbMsAkQLgBXgCgoZ/A9N91U7dYPOac1gFWE+Xk Zs0An2lDgEeL+vC5ucoHKNzgYjD2fDe4 =/v7s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
