.11 generates dscs will incorrect build-depends lines(they contain
ARRAY(0x...)"
It also doesn't handle complex build-depends parsing(if an item contains both
() and [] restrictions).
The first was fixed in .12. The latter in .13. .13 should be available on a
mirror near you today.
The above is something I hadn't tested, as Wichert had done it, so I thought
he had. Please file a bug, showing exactly what you did(ie, how you generated
the .dsc, etc).
