Package: fonts-sil-abyssinica
Version: 1.200-6
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: bubulle@debian.org

The latest changelog entry says:
   * Drop ttf-sil-abyssinica, this mean further:
     fonts-sil-abyssinica now "Breaks" ttf-sil-abyssinica (instead of
     "Conflicts")
     ttf-sil-abyssinica is no longer provided by fonts-sil-abyssinica
which makes no sense at all (it seems entirely backwards).

Breaks is supposed to ensure both packages are upgraded together.  If
one of them no longer exists that's not possible.  So Breaks is what
should have been used in wheezy, not now...
Also the "Provides: ttf-sil-abyssinica" in the wheezy package seems
useless when there's a real ttf-sil-abyssinica transitional package.
It would make sense to have the Provides *now*, though.

Also, ttf-sil-abyssinica is a dependency of task-amharic-desktop (which
means the latter is now uninstallable).  You might want to talk to
maintainers of your reverse dependencies when making such a change.

Cheers,
Julien

I don't see how the reported issue got fixed in the new release, but anyway
the bug report 709156 is too old to be relevant anymore since the ttf-* package
no longer exist since oldoldoldstable. Let us just mark it as being fixed by the
latest upload.

Thanks,
Boyuan Yang
