No, that's too late, the Build-Depends are analyzed before installing them. You'd need some kind of ugly Build-PreDepends or similar. So type-handling is broken, do not use it. We (the GNU/kFreeBSD team) have adopted it and will push for its removal once dpkg gets the needed functionality. regards, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
