Bug#933991: src:libxcomposite: depends on empty transitional package x11proto-composite-dev
Package: src:libxcomposite
Version: 1:0.4.4-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
x11proto-composite-dev is a "transitional dummy package" by its
description, and indeed empty, but I can't remove it from my system
because libxcomposite-dev depends on it (and the libxcomposite source
package build-depends on it). Please consider dropping this dependency.
(BTW, there are similar problems with the other x11proto-*-dev dummy
packages, libx11(-dev) depends on some of them, etc.)

Feri.
