Package: libvirt Version: 2.4.0-1 Severity: wishlist --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Currently, on Debian jessie the build process depends on resolving: Backporting package libvirt in sid→jessie/amd64: unsatisfiable build dependencies: Build-Depends libxml2-dev (>2.9.2+really2.9.1+dfsg1-0.2).
But, using "dpkg-buildpackage -d -b -uc", the build does succeed on jessie even with libxml2-dev (2.9.1+dfsg1-5+deb8u3) installed. Could the B-D be relaxed to allow building on jessie without having to use -d? --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 4.7.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 Debian Release: 8.6 990 stable security.debian.org 990 stable ftp.debian.org 500 stable repos.wine-staging.com 500 stable deb.i2p2.no 500 jessie-backports mozilla.debian.net 100 jessie-backports ftp.debian.org --- Package information. --- Package's Depends field is empty.
