This should not a big deal, despite the fact, that one dependency (libm4ri) needs backporting, too.

This might be, because there were not any *binary* packages called "polybori" or "polybori-gui" in PolyBoRi 0.5. There was libpolybori-dev, which is mentioned correctly in mathematics-dev. Anyway this is inconsistent somehow. Best regards, Alexander -- Dr. rer. nat. Dipl.-Math.
