expectk has two reverse dependencies in squeeze: exmh (suggests) xsmbrowser (depends). Both are removed from wheezy and sid. Currently, update expect from squeeze (5.44.1.15-4) to wheezy (5.45-2) goes silently, leaving expectk broken (/usr/bin/expectk fails to run with the following message: /usr/bin/expectk: error while loading shared libraries: libexpect.so.5.44.1.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory). If exmh is installed it continues working, though I'm not sure if somewhere deep exmh will not try to run no more working expectk. xsmbrowser fails immediately with the same message as expectk (bug #686364). Dist-upgrade to proposed 5.45-3 removes expectk and xsmbrowser (if they are installed). It's a desirable behavior as neither package works with expect 5.45-*. exmh stays and runs. I didn't try full upgrate from squeeze to wheezy, just these four packages (expect, expectk, xambrowser, exmh) in wheezy. I think that the proposed 5.45-3 behaves better than 5.45-2 on upgrade.
