[CC only bug of libbpp-core to reduce the noise on the mailing list a bit]

I've just checked libbpp-core and realised that pristine-tar information
is missing. Did you simply forgot to push or it is not imported. I
recently gave some hints about this[1] here on this list. Feel free to
ask if you have no idea what to do anyway.

Please use Close statements. I'm building those packages here at my
side in a chroot and if they will not upload - but if it builds the bug
can be closed. I like your good style to add some extra care but in
this case it is not needed.

That's strange. When building in an up to date unstable chroot you
should get d-shlibs 0.82+nmu1 whatever Build-Depends you are using. The
Build-Depends is only useful for backports to other systems where some
lower version of d-shlibs might be used and the build would fail. So
you are probably building on a different system than Debian unstable and
moreover you have some interesting effect in your preferences which are
able to pick different versions of d-shlibs (I've never seen this but
who knows).

I do not think that the problem is inside the control file but in your
build system. If you want more detailed help I need the exact package
and the positive + negative versioned Build-Depends.
Summary of the blockers for an upload:
1. pristine-tar
2. s/Ref:/Closes:/ in d/changelog
Once you are touching the packages again please also set latest
Standards-Version:
3. Standards-Version: 4.2.0
Kind regards and thanks for the preparation of the packages
Andreas.
