Hi, the reason for the cluster-glue -> lib* dependency is that the former uses these libs, and the reason for the dependency the other way is that the libs have a /usr/share/doc-lib* -> cluster-glue symlink. (The lintian override explains that as well.) > Complex circular dependencies are known to cause problems during upgrade, so > we > should try to get rid of them. I'd argue that this isn't a "complex" circular dependency, but we'll see what we can do. Possibly moving the doc directory to a new cluster-glue-common package would work. Christoph
