Such a + dependency will not be satisfied by a backport of libfoo 1.2-1 and + therefore makes backporting unnecessarily difficult. Normally, the -1 + version is unneeded and a dependency such as "libfoo (>= 1.2)" would + be sufficient. If there was an earlier -0.X version of libfoo that would + not satisfy the dependency, use "libfoo (>= 1.2-1~)" instead. |
