Hard to do that in debhelper. debhelper doesn't introduce brand-new fields in debian/control; it just uses substvars. cdbs could if run in the mode that regenerates debian/control, but of course that's not automatic. Now, if the maintainer added the Conflicts field with the substvar, then yes, but it sounded like Steve doesn't think even that should be needed in most cases? -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
