Problem is that i forgot to update dependencies on the package, they
should in fact read apt-index-watcher and not debtags now... updating
to debtags 1.5.4 or later should solve the problem though, so not many
installations should be affected (only those that are not completely
up to date with unstable). Since i am not a DD yet (stuck in the DAM
approval for some time now), i won't do an upload to fix this, will
have to wait till next version upload. Hopefully sometime next week.
