Bug#841425: dia-common: Fails to install with old xml-core.
Package: dia-common
Version: 0.97.3+git20160930-1
Severity: normal
Tags: newcomer
Dear Maintainer,
I tried to upgrade dia, with an old version (0.13+nmu2) of xml-core installed.
It failed with the message "Unknown option: sort" and then the usage
instructions of update-xmlcatalog. It appears this sort-option was added to
0.14, upgrading my version of xml-core let me upgrade dia successfully.
So I propose to bump the version dia-common requires accordingly.
Presumably the other dependants of xml-core are in the same situation, as
this new option is used by dh_installxmlcatalogs.
Thanks for maintaining!
-Steven
