Helmut, can we do anything about this? I was thinking about a Provides for the plugin ABI on the binary package, or even a dummy package, like this (pseudocode, shortened)… actually, it already Provides the ABI, so we can probably rotate things: current: Package: nodejs Depends: ${shlib:Depends} Architecture: i386 Provides: nodejs-abi-46 suggested: Package: nodejs Depends: ${shlib:Depends} Architecture: i386 Multi-Arch: foreign Package: nodejs-abi-46 Architecture: i386 Depends: nodejs (= ${some:version}) Does this even work?
