Subject: srcinst: does not handle properly virtual packages
Package: srcinst
Version: 0.8.4
Severity: important
It seems that srcinst has a great deal of problem when it encounters
virtual packages.
The package vdrift is not yet in etch, but is present in unstable. Using
srcinst to install it seemed like a good idea.
