Are you sure you talk about the same things ?
packages whose jifty depends on / packages that depend on jifty ?
Yves: I think it is better to keep the depends in any case: you will be
able to provide jifty with backports.org and all depends will be ready in
lenny... (I do the same thing for koha: nearly all depends are in lenny.
The last ones and koha itself will be available in backports.org as they
are not ready for lenny time)

Vincent
