Package: dpkg Version: 1.17.25 Severity: wishlist I was working on a fix for #783374, which is a problem only when udisks2 is installed, and the fix itself requires a newer udisks2.
I tried fixing gparted by adding a "Recommends: udisks2 (>= 2.1.5-1)" to avoid creating a hard dependency on udisks2. But with that dpkg happily installed gparted with udisks2 versions (2.1.3-5) that didn't meet the stated version requirement. I ended up using the hard dependency as a solution, but it's not ideal (adding an unnecessary depends). It would be preferable for dpkg to enforce version requirement in recommends fields.
