Mailsync depends on libc-client which can be compiled one way or another including or excluding ssl, kerberos etc.
It happens that libc-client in woody did not include kerberos but libc-client in sid does. Is there a way to specify this in the build dependecies? Right know I have to decide if I want to make mailsync buildable on woody or on sid. I wouldn't mind if it could build on both. Is something like this possible: Build-Depends: libc-client-ssl2001-dev | ( libc-client2002-dev, libssl-dev, libkrb5-dev ) OTOH - couldn't the build system figure that out for itself - that is check libc-client2002(-dev) and find out that it depends on libkrb5-dev and make sure it's installed before building the package? <flamethrowers, please align your weapons in the correct direction so that I can find the relevant docs/discussion in case this is a "faq"> *t -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Tomas Pospisek SourcePole - Linux & Open Source Solutions http://sourcepole.ch Elestastrasse 18, 7310 Bad Ragaz, Switzerland Tel: +41 (81) 330 77 11 -----------------------------------------------------------
