Is there a way to get the dependency engine to accept a specific version of another package but wildcard the revision field when searching?
Hi Hanspeter,
For my Galeon package I have to depend on a specific major version of Mozilla, eg: 1.7.*-* . The way I do this is:
Depends: mozilla (>= 1.7-1), mozilla (<< 1.8-1)
Did you actually try this? And did it do what you thought it should do? In my tests, when it was like you show it, it happily neglected the second dependency and installed the higher version anyway. When I interchanged the the two inequalities, put the << first and the >= second, I got the infamous "node ... already exists" error.
