Package: playonlinux

Dear maintainer,
The current version of playonlinux in wheezy is 4.1.1-1, but 4.2.2-1 from
testing/sid has no additional dependencies on testing/sid packages.
However the dependency on python (>= 2.6.6-7~) was changed to python:any (>=
2.6.6-7~), which results in a "Virtual package" conflict. Changing it back in
debian/control allows to install the package without upgrading libc6 et al.
I couldn't find a mention on this in the changelog, hence the question.
The python dependency is most likely automatically generated by
dh_python2, so it's not a change made to playonlinux that caused this.
The correct way of fixing this is to not install packages from
testing/sid on wheezy, but to prepare a backport [1] of that package
and ask for a sponsor on debian-backports and/or debian-mentors.
Regards,
Vincent
