[Buildd-tools-devel] Bug#403246: sbuild dependancy resolution fails when b-dep on A | B ; A uninstallable

[Lucas Nussbaum]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.52

Hi,

While rebuilding the simpledb package, I ran into a problem described in
#403059. It build-depends on libstdc++6-4.0-dev | libstdc++5-3.3-dev.
libstdc++6-4.0-dev is no longer installable, so it should have tried
libstdc++5-3.3-dev, but instead, it just failed.

** Using build dependencies supplied by package:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.0.0), unixodbc-dev, libstdc++6-4.0-dev |
libstdc++5-3.3-dev
Checking for already installed source dependencies...
debhelper: missing
unixodbc-dev: missing
libstdc++6-4.0-dev: missing
libstdc++5-3.3-dev: missing
Checking for source dependency conflicts...
Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
E: Couldn't find package libstdc++6-4.0-dev
apt-get failed.
Package installation failed

Thank you,
