Package: libzbar0
Version: 0.23.93-1
Severity: important

libzbzr0 explicitly Recommends libmagickcore-6.q16-6-extra but that
package is no longer built by the imagemagick source. The current
library is named libmagickcore-6.q16-7-extra

I believe this is technically a violation of Debian Policy § 2.2.1
which forbids packages from having Recommends for packages that are
not in main (unless it is a non-default alternative).

However, I see that zbar has a time_t NMU in Experimental so it may be
best to wait until the time transition completes first.
