Gentlemen, what's the best way to handle the following dependency problem:
mueller7-dict package is UTF-8 encoded and requires one of the following dict servers to operate: * dictd (<< 1.10.1) with --locale=xx_XX.UTF-8 in config * dictd (>= 1.10.1) * serpento (as the only one more dict server in Debian providing dict-server) Handling of first case currently involves debconf questions and patching dictd config, other ones do not require any handling. I would like to drop first case completely (as dictd << 1.10.1 is only in Sarge) to simplify things. However, it is unclear for me how to declare dependencies properly. Current situation is "Depends: dictd | dict-server". Changing it to "Depends: dictd (>= 1.10.1) | dict-server" is incorrect as dictd (<< 1.10.1) provides dict-server. Changing it to "Depends: dictd (>= 1.10.1) | serpento" makes life harder if someone wants to add another dict server to Debian. -- JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
