It is not appropriate. From http://packages.debian.org/php4-pgsql: Release Package (size) stable php4-pgsql 4.0.3pl1-0potato2 testing php4-pgsql 3:4.1-1 unstable php4-pgsql 3:4.1.2-1 You reported a bug against a version of php4-pgsql which is already outdated; the maintainer already *has* uploaded a fix for the bug you reported. In addition, unsatisfiable dependencies in php4-pgsql have NO bearing on whether PHP gets into woody (which it already is); had you looked a little more closely, you would have seen that php4-pgsql is a separate source package in the non-US archive, because of the dependency on postgresql. If anything, this would keep the newest postgres package from entering woody; but it's not likely to do that, either. Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
