> Lintian don't check the specific versions in the field Build-Depends Because no version of python-support older than 0.5.6 ever released as part of a Debian release. Versioning that dependency would only matter for an unstable system that hasn't been updated since the etch release, and the project does not require that dependencies be correct for such a case. We only support upgrades from the last stable release. Lintian will additionally recommend supporting upgrades from oldstable if it's very easy to do so, but upgrading from intermediate unstable versions is more than is really reasonable to ask of package maintainers. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
