dictionaries-common dependency:

dictionaries-common (1.23.4) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/control:
    - Depend on (emacsen-common >= 2.0.8) as required by new
      emacsen-common policy. This should not be a problem at all, since
      emacsen-common is now a tiny package. No longer conflict with older
      emacsen-common (Closes: #736572).
    - Fix dictionaries-common-dev dependency on dictionaries-common.

but I wonder why a policy of package B would dictate a A->B dependency.
