[Pkg-xfce-devel] libxfce4mcs-dev packaging question



Hello all,

Should I file a bug on this?
snip from an IRC conversation forwared to me today

<infinity> dholbach : xfce4-mcs-manager-dev depends on libxfce4mcs-dev (>= 
${Source-Version}), but they're not built from the same source. So, stuff 
breaks horribly if they aren't always uploaded together, even if you're only 
fixing a bug in one.
[...]
<infinity> dholbach : It's a simple hack to add something that detects 
"Upstream-Version" in debian/rules, then fills that in for .substvars, which 
is probably what the Debian guys wanted.
<infinity> dholbach : Cause having the exact debian revisions tightly bound 
like that is just... Wrong.


thanks
Jani
