erm, ... this is told to be depredated (or whatever is the correct writting of
this word) by the build dependency stuff. It also don't seems to do anything
on a unstable system.

Yes, but since i want ot build the package on both potato and unstable, this
will not help.
Maybe there could be two Build-depends line, one for potato and one for
unstable also, or something such, but then potato apt don't support build
depends yet, so this may be moot.
Anyway, the first solution would be the best one in this case.
