Package: libalog-dev Version: 0.1-2 Severity: normal The development package libalog-dev requires gnat-4.3; it is useless without it and will not work with any other version of gnat-x.y because of Ada's consistency rules. gnat implements these rules by means of the checksums in the .ali files shipped in libalog-dev, which depend on those in gnat-4.3.
The package should therefore encode this dependency in its control file. Similarly, the package should tighten its dependency on a certain version (or range of versions) of libahven-dev. Alternatively, a new version of libahven-dev that breaks compatibility should change its name. -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
