--- Comment #1 from David Cook <[email protected]> ---
I've been thinking about this topic on and off for a little while regarding
Debian packages in general...

Typically, one hard-codes required version numbers for dependencies into
debian/control (or whatever process that builds it like debian/update-control
in Koha).

But we don't usually know the Koha/koha-l10n version until we give it to
debian/build-git-snapshot (or an alternative Koha Debian package builder if
you're me) which is a fairly last minute thing...

We use dch -v to set the version number, which should flow through to one of
the variables listed in "man deb-substvars" such as source:Version or
binary:Version. 

That said... I don't know how well that will work for custom Debian packages
which rely on the community koha-l10n package.

So we might need to think of something a bit different. Possibly a custom
variable in debian/control (and debian/control.in naturally), and then I think
the version could be managed in debian/rules. 

Anyway, food for thought. Moving this to the Packaging component.
