  1. Because I didn't want to change shlibs, it was only an error.
  2. Because at that moment, though I realized that libgpg-error0 should
  be Priority: important, i didn't think about that making it base.
  After all my package was Priority: optional from the first upload I
  made, and nobody tell me otherwise.

 I can upload a new version with a shlibs stick to older version, or a
 package with old version.

  no one (or only a few of them) use any interface provided by
  libgpg-error
