I recently backported debhelper and friends to Etch, and it seems the tightened dpkg dependency is only relevant for packages using debhelper hints related to shared libraries (which I believe cdd-dev does not), and it also seems to me that such packages will fail loudly (rather than generate broken binary packages). If you are lazy, you can use my prepared backports here: deb http://debian.jones.dk/ etch src Or if you (like me) want to trust only Debian and yourself, then here's the sources for you to investigate and hopefully get inspired from: http://debian.jones.dk/pkg/src/ Regards, - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFIIN2Wn7DbMsAkQLgRAuaaAJwKUhlxTaDMtt8fjz9KWZIFzQ3Z4ACeL4U4 WIncq3nLsuXqcKk/oe3ycYw= =LRnd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
