Are you sure here? I'd say you mean this: The hamm libfoo package has to depend on libc5 and has to conflict with libfoo-dev. - libfoo is libc5, so it should depend on libc5. - Yes, we should try and get rid of libc5-dev, but I'm not sure it's the job of random libries to force users to do that: as far as I can see, nothing breaks when the two are installed together. > 6.

Maybe you mean "any newly uploaded bo libfoo package". (we'd get a flood of bo bugs otherwise, against all bo libraries). > iii)The libfoo-dev package has to conflict with libc5-altdev and > has to depend on libc5-dev. Again, better change that to "any newly uploaded libfoo-dev package". And, the "conflict with libc5-altdev" seems redundant, as libc5-altdev already conflicts with libc5-dev. And all old (bo) libcfoo-dev packages should depend on libc5-dev anyway. > [2] The location ../libc5-compat was introduced in the ldso package.
