I'm working on a new version of the mpich2 packages. It is being
renamed to mpich, so I have introduced some transitional packages.
For example, the current package called libmpich2-dev will be replaced
with the new package libmpich-dev. Therefore, libmpich2-dev will
become a transitional package that depends on libmpich-dev. This is
what I have specified in the control file for the new mpich.
I am not referring to any virtual packages in the control file, as far
as I can see myself. However, lintian gives me this:
tmac@asus:$ lintian mpich_3.0.4-1_amd64.changes
.
.
W: libmpich2-dev: virtual-package-depends-without-real-package-depends
depends: libmpich-dev
.
.
Does anyone know why lintian would think that libmpich-dev, which is a
new package that will appear with the newer mpich-packages, is a
virtual package?
You should probably version the dependency, did you do that?
Yes, I have:
Package: libmpich2-dev
Architecture: any
Section: libdevel
Depends: libmpich-dev (= ${binary:Version}), ${misc:Depends}
