Problematic packages can be found using "apt-cache showpkg libjpegg6a" (replace libjpegg6a with the outdated library). A whole list of packages can be done with a script like: (LIBS="libpng0g newt0.25 ncurses3.4 libpgsql libjpegg6a tcl7.6 libwraster1" for pkg in $LIBS; do apt-cache showpkg $pkg|sed -e '/^Reverse D/,/^[^ ]/p;d'|grep -v Depend done)| sort -u (We should filter out an exceptions list too - these lists will have to be seperately generated for each architecture.) It might also be a good idea to add a filter to dinstall to keep new packages that depend on one of these libraries from being uploaded (with a suitable exceptions list). A raw list of "bad" packages is at the end of this message.
