Would it make sense for your packages to > have in Debian that version of libcgroup (the current git HEAD)? While I appreciate the effort, I feel a bit uneasy about shipping something half-baked like this. Does such an updated libcgroup package actually ensure, that rdeps continue to work? Maybe the packages above need to check, whether they actually need the libcgroup / cgroup-tools dependency. If this was broken for such a long time with noone noticing, maybe dropping that dependency is the better alternative. At least the cgroup-tools dependency looks like something that could be dropped.
