Alternative dependencies

2011-10-23 Thread Tony Houghton
What should you do if you have a dependency which can either use one package or two (or more) different packages. For example, roxterm's man pages can be built either with xmltoman, xmlto or xsltproc, but xsltproc additionally requires docbook-xsl. I don't think control file syntax supports
