OK, since changing the package name is now required for each patch release of GDAL, having the alternative dependency for the C++ symbols doesn't have much benefit anymore. It may be better to just include the upstream version in the package name (e.g. libgdal1-1.11.2 & libgdal20-2.0.0) and drop the alternative dependency for the C++ symbols. GDAL upstream started a vote to bless GDAL 2.0.0 RC1 as final, so the final release is expected soon. I've started packaging the pre-releases but I expect we'll need to resolve quite a number of issues in the reverse dependencies to work with GDAL 2.0.0 before we can consider it for unstable. With that in mind I still prefer to first move GDAL 1.11.2 from experimental to unstable so we can use experimental for GDAL 2.0.0. It does mean another gdal transition in the near future for 1.11 -> 2.0. Kind Regards, Bas -- GPG Key ID: 4096R/6750F10AE88D4AF1 Fingerprint: 8182 DE41 7056 408D 6146 50D1 6750 F10A E88D 4AF1
