Please unblock package libaqbanking
A user reported to me in private that the AqBanking plugins to Gwenhywfar get
lost on upgrade from squeezy to wheezy. The reason is that the package
libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar47 got renamed to
libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar60, but (intentionally) no other package
depends or recommends the package libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar60. The
impact is, that for all users that want to use it, AqBanking doesn't work
anymore.
I would like to add a transitional dummy package
libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar47 that depends on
libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar60, so that AqBanking continues to work on
upgrades from squeeze to wheezy. You can find the suggested changes attached to
this mail.
As the suggested change introduces a new binary package, is there any special
need to raise attention of the FTP masters before the upload?

I agree, there is some confusion -- on my side.
I should have checked this on my own in advance, because the one who
reported the issue originally has indeed installation of recommended
packages disabled. So, sorry for the noise!
I am closing this bug now.
Regards,
Micha
