Build Dependencies with OR

[Asier Llano Palacios <asierllano@infonegocio.com>]

Hello,

If I understand the source code properly (maybe I am wrong) when we call:

apt-get build-dep whatever

It ignores the OR Build-Dependencies.
It treats these dependencies as being the same:

Build-Depends: a, b | c, d

and

Build-Depends: a, b, c, d

I supose that at least the bugs: #98640 
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=98640>, #126938 
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=126938>, #131265 
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=131265>, #145997
are caused by this unimplemented behaviour.

I'm currently working in its implementation, so I'd like to know if any 
other one is
working on it or if there is any problem if I implement it.

I have downloaded the CVS code and started developing the change.
As soon as I finish I could send a patch to this list.

Please, answer me directly because I have subscribed to the digest, but
I cannot subscribe myself to the list because I've found it is closed.

Thank you in advance,
Asier Llano
