New emusic packages - broken upgrade path
I just uploaded emusic_0.8-5 to incoming.
emusic (0.8-5) unstable; urgency=low
* Recompiled against GTK+ 1.2
* Consolidated into one package
* This WILL not install cleanly through dselect. Remove all your
emusic packages first (this is because dpkg cannot do versioned
Provides:) But this is unstable, so thems the breaks.
* EsounD now a Recommends instead of a Depends
* Changed debian/rules to use DESTDIR
* Updated download location in copyright file

Just --remove libemusic0 emusic-data emusic-docs emusic, then apt-get install
emusic.
I asked on -mentors about this, there was no opposition to it and only one
reply. I know this is messy, but so is dpkg not allowing versioned Provides:.
This is only an issue from potato->potato. People going from the slink emusic
to potato emusic will not have any problems, becasue the slink packages did not
have versioned Depends:.
