Severity: serious

Justification: uninstallable

Hi Robert,
The mnemosyne package in unstable has a hard-coded dependency on libicu52.
The icu library is in the midst of an soname change, and now provides
libicu55 instead of libicu52.
The last time icu had an soname change, pochu raised the point that this
dependency should probably be dropped (bug #732005). You didn't give any
explanation on that bug why the dependency should be there, but just revved
the dependency to the new soname. I've grepped through the mnemosyne
source, and there are no references anywhere to any files contained in the
libicu package. The fact that you changed the dependency without making any
changes to the source is further evidence that the dependency is unused.
Please drop the unneeded dependency, as in the attached (trivial) patch.
Thanks for considering.
