Re: Versioned dependencies with stdeb and pybuild
Thanks for your help!
May be I should have mentioned that I'm packaging for internal use here.
So required package versions not available in the standard distribution
will be provided from a local repository.

You're right, this is requirements.txt, including the '=='s ...

Why do you recommend putting the requirements into Build-Depends? Most
of those packages are currently not available on the build system (I'm
not pbuilder for this).
How do you think about an additional option for pybuild that would tell
it to translate all version specifications provided by upstream into
Depends?

With DB, you mean Build-Depends?

Ok. But I guess this is overwritten the next time I use stdeb?

Not yet. Does it handle versioned dependencies differently?
