I really don't think this is terribly important to deal with. This problem only affects users who were running testing or unstable (both of which are development distributions) while the affected package was present. I'd imagine that a very large proportion of the affected users have already upgraded so won't benefit from any fix. For other users blogging the upgrade path (or posting to -amd64) so that it shows up in Google would probably be enough. I also can't immediately think how to avoid the problem, though I must confess that given the above I haven't tried terribly hard. Obviously, the dependency is generated by dpkg-shlibdeps and I'm not inclined to ignore it on this nor can I see any way of forcing the upgrade that works with that dependency. That said, if you come up with a suggestion for helping people upgrade (or I have any bright ideas, for that matter) then I'd certainly consider implementing it. If you do then please file it as a separate wishlist bug - the handling of the upgrade from the systems with the broken versions installed is a separate issue to the original breakage and much less severe since it doesn't affect stable users. -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever."
