Corrrect way to tell: Build-Depends: libfoo (>= 0.x), libfoo (<< 0.y)
Hello,
In order to avoid an FTBFS bug report [1] reported during a transition
period I'm wondering if I can tell the following via debian/control:
build-depend on a library >= 0.x and << 0.y
What would be the correct way?
Build-Depends: library (>= 0.x)
Build-Conflicts: library (<< 0.y)
This would of course still lead to a FTBFS, but it would be more clear,
why it fails. Is the above solution ok?
