Uhmmm, sorry for the confusion. I never realised that it was removed. (I think I even somehow ignored one of your hints about this fact in the past because I was somehow sure that it was in ...) I can only tell for sure that sitplus was in testing at the point of creation of the Debian Med metapackages because it is recommended in med-rehabilitation. This was in April and we did not recieved any RC bug against sitplus so I did not checked - perhaps it was just removed because of the missing Dependency. BTW, I did not recieved any response to my "Blends metapackages upload *after* freeze" mail[1]. The Recommends in med-rehabilitation would be fixed by a new upload - but in principle it would be prefered to have sitplus inside wheezy if possible. > Without a lot of persuading, britney won't allow there to be packages in > testing which depend on packages which aren't also in testing.

See http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=debian-med/sitplus.git;a=blob;f=debian/control It lists libpoco-dev as Build-Depends and #680798 is exactly about the lack of the required Build-Depends.
