This problem arises because dpkg conservatively refuses to let provided package names satisfy versioned dependencies. The current hdf5 packaging accounts for that by indicating that dependent packages should declare unversioned dependencies, but hdf-eos5 just mixed the fix. The next hdf5-eos upload of any sort should pick up a proper unversioned dependency; a binary-only rebuild may be in order unless its maintainer plans to issue another sourceful upload soon. -- Aaron M.
