Package: debhelper Version: 9.20141022 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 12.3
afterstep package after recent binary-only NMU is no longer installable, because dh_installdocs has added the following strict dependency on arch-independent package: afterstep-data (=2.2.12-2+b2) See this log: https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=afterstep&arch=i386&ver=2.2.12-2%2Bb2&stamp=1413508373 and compare it with the log of previous binary-only NMU from last year: https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=afterstep&arch=i386&ver=2.2.12-2%2Bb1&stamp=1387741360 The policy in section 12.3 and footnote 116 refers to source versions, not binary versions: /usr/share/doc/package may be a symbolic link to another directory in /usr/share/doc only if the two packages both come from the same source and the first package Depends on the second.[116] [116] Please note that this does not override the section on changelog files below, so the file /usr/share/doc/package/changelog.Debian.gz must refer to the changelog for the current version of package in question. In practice, this means that the sources of the target and the destination of the symlink must be the same (same source package and version).
