Please note that grass 6.4.0~rc5-2 build-depends on libgdal1-dev (>= 1.5.0) which is available in Lenny, so there is no need to pull in a newer version from bpo. Please try to avoid unneeded dependencies, if possible (as stated in "basic rules" at [1]). (In case you were talking about etch-backports, please ignore this message. I suppose, this is not the case, though, as libgdal1-dev in etch-bpo depends on libltdl3-dev, which is available in Etch.) Anyway, thanks for reporting the broken dependency :-) Cheers, Sebastian [1] http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=contribute -- Sebastian "tokkee" Harl +++ GnuPG-ID: 0x8501C7FC +++ http://tokkee.org/ Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin
