Bug#459821: uninstallable: needs to depend on a apt version rather than particular apt libraries



Package: python-apt
Version: 0.7.4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

python-apt is currently uninstallable on sid.  this is because there is
a dependency on the /usr/lib/libapt-inst-libc6.6-1.so.1.1 and
/usr/lib/libapt-pkg-libc6.6-6.so.4.6 files. however, as of apt 0.7.10, 
those files no longer exist (they have been replaced by the 6.7 versions
rather than 6.6).

the solution to this problem is to depend on the apt package version 
(0.7.10), rather than the libraries provided by the apt package.

thanks for the hard work.
