Yup. "We" (ie myself as maintainer and IIRC the ftpmasters) decided that the
libquantlib-$VERSION scheme was overkill. So it's just libquantlib0 and
libquantlib-dev as it used to be pre 1.*.
There are only two (other) client packages, and I happen to be the maintainer
of those two as well.

Yes, as I am 'all maintainers'.

It was: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=quantlib-swig
Problem is that quantlib is a resource hog (lots of big C++ classes, swig
makes it one compilation unit, lots of ram needed) so some machines time out.
How do I request rebuilds with 'more patience' ie a larger timeout window?
