Please rename it to libaqbanking-dev. Unfortunately a Provides: libaqbanking34-dev is not going to help us, because all the build-dependencies on libaqbanking34-dev are versioned. So the rdeps are going to need sourceful uploads to update the b-d. But they were going to need that anyway had you changed it to libaqbanking35-dev, so no big deal. The fact that libaqbanking34-dev provides libaqbanking-dev is not a problem at all. > The following reverse dependencies will be impacted by this transition: > > abtransfers > gnucash > kmymoney BTW do the rdeps build against the new version?

Let us know once the package has been accepted in experimental. Regards, Emilio -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
