Source: libchipcard Version: 5.0.3beta-2 Severity: serious Tags: patch Justification: in the maintainer's opinion, makes the package unsuitable for release
Hi, a user reported to me in private that the libchipcard plugins to Gwenhywfar get lost on upgrade from squeezy to wheezy. The impact is, that users that want to use AqBanking with a chipcard, AqBanking doesn't work anymore after the upgrade. The reason is that the package libchipcard-libgwenhywfar47-plugins got renamed to libchipcard-libgwenhywfar60-plugins, but (intentionally) no other package depends or recommends the package libchipcard-libgwenhywfar60-plugins. I would like to add a transitional dummy package libchipcard-libgwenhywfar47-plugins that depends on libchipcard-libgwenhywfar60-plugins, so that AqBanking continues to work for the affected users after upgrades from squeeze to wheezy. Regards, Micha
