Make sure that the changes file reads "frozen unstable" for the dist.,
else it will only go into potato (this has happened to a number of
packages already...)

The lib packages are changed so that they don't create that specific
.deb anymore, but the package which use those libs are recompiled
before the libs package... or the porter simply didn't have his libs up
to date when building.
BTW, if you're posting a couple of messages about the same basic
subject, please reply to the previous one! That way the messages
get threaded together, and I wouldn't have needed to send my previous
message (which was basically superseded by your message I'm replying to
now...)
