Yes. Though as you say... > From what I can see no rdep use the unversioned virtual package, but > this could be a good occasion to have them switch to it? Packages still need sourceful uploads, and unless it is pointed to them, I bet they will switch to libopenobex2-dev, requiring yet another change when the SONAME changes again. So it'd be good to explicitly mention the unversioned libopenobex-dev build-dependency. Cheers, Emilio
