Please unblock package libaqbanking A user reported to me in private that the AqBanking plugins to Gwenhywfar get lost on upgrade from squeezy to wheezy. The reason is that the package libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar47 got renamed to libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar60, but (intentionally) no other package depends or recommends the package libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar60. The impact is, that for all users that want to use it, AqBanking doesn't work anymore. I would like to add a transitional dummy package libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar47 that depends on libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar60, so that AqBanking continues to work on upgrades from squeeze to wheezy. You can find the suggested changes attached to this mail. As the suggested change introduces a new binary package, is there any special need to raise attention of the FTP masters before the upload? unblock libaqbanking/5.0.24
