What do to about Bug#38822: cmucl: Causes assert failure in dpkg



Hi people,

I'm a little confused about what I should do about bug #38822...
CMUCL is now split in a safe and a small image. An extract from the
control file:

Package: cmucl
Architecture: i386
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, lisp-core
Provides: lisp-compiler

Package: cmucl-safe
Architecture: i386
Depends: cmucl
Provides: lisp-core
Conflicts: cmucl (<= 2.4.9)

Package: cmucl-small
Architecture: i386
Depends: cmucl
Provides: lisp-core

This breaks dpkg. What should I do? The old package is called cmucl, so 
I cannot break the link of cmucl depending on lisp-core, or else
people will be with a non-functional system, and I cannot break the other
link because then new users will be also left out in the cold. 

What's the solution?

Groetjes, Peter
