I think this was fixed in metastudent-data by changing the Depends on metastudent (>= 2.0.0) to 'Breaks: metastudent (<< 2.0.0)'. Tobias forgot to close the bug in the changelog, and apparently forgot to email the bug tracker as well. @Tobi: do you remember those commands and links I sent you about this? I will let Tobias explain the rest. In short, I think that dependency is a hard 'Depends' on the data package, and not a 'Recommends', because it is very unlikely that anyone but upstream would be able to generate that data package (@Tobi: correct me if I am wrong), and the software will be useless without it. The reason for breaking metastudent up to metastudent(-data\d)? is technical: to allow uploads of a small, but more frequently-changing non-data package, avoiding the need to upload versions of a large data package.
