Consider the following sequence of events: 1. Install squeeze, including abby. 2. Upgrade. Then abby stops functioning. A simple "Breaks" added to cclive would avoid trouble. Debian supports mixtures of packages between two successive releases, since that is what makes upgrades just work. The same considerations would apply if abby in wheezy worked with cclive in wheezy, rather than abby having been removed. The only complication is that abby's "cclive --version" check is a bit insane, but why not help users when we can? diff --git i/debian/changelog w/debian/changelog index 87f4ac6a..81082279 100644 --- i/debian/changelog +++ w/debian/changelog @@ -1,3 +1,11 @@ +cclive (0.7.9-1.1) unstable; urgency=low + + * Non-maintainer upload. + * Breaks abby (<< 0.4.7-1.) which parses "cclive --version" output + incorrectly.
