Which interplay are you referring to? The plugins are shared libraries
loaded by the main program (claws-mail) to extend it's functionality,
nothing more. There's a unique interdependency between plugins (pgpinline
and pgmmime require pgpcore) but it's already present and solved in current
packages.
To sumarize it a bit, the only changes are:
* the new package names (the real names of the .so files remain the same
no changes here)
* the addition of a new tools package with the helper scripts
under /usr/share/doc/claws-mail (the sylpheed-claws-scripts s-c-gtk2 was
depending before is not longer valid because of the name change).
* the addition of a new plugin available upstream, attach-warner, but this
can even be removed if you prefer.
regards,
P.S.: Please Cc me, I'm not subscribed to debian-release.
