Hello all,

Again more thanks to Craig. I have built and installed several
backports, but the one I am still trying for will not yet build. It
does not see the backports I did build and install as providing the
dependencies, yet.

I suspect that I may need to alter something in the dependencies thhat
I backport built, or is it possible to alter the dependencies
requirements in the backport built with dpkg-buildpackage.

Even with one of the backports, it produced multiple debs, and one of
those depends on two others, and adding the "~backport" tag in the
changelog stalls the one that depends on the other two. Maybe did not
need the backport tag, but on the other hand, I do want such
indication.

I built tiff-4.0.10, and libtiff-dev depends on libtiff5 and
libtiffxx5 (version = 4.0.10-4 versus 4.0.10-4~backport). Without
those all installed, dpkg-buildpackage will not build
sane-backends-1.0.27.

Regards,

Mark Trickett
