What is it with Debian maintainers that you just have to diverge from upstream? This is not the first time this happened to me (and I don't maintain that many projects!) and I'm not prepared to deal with the headache of Debian's mess again :( The tool's name is "diff-pdf". It is not "diff-pdf-wx". "diffpdf" is different from "diff-pdf"; there's not even a conflict there. Also, picking one of the dependencies at random to slap it to the name seems a bizarre choice. |
