Package: aide-common
Version: 0.13.1-11
Severity: important
Hello Aide Maintainers,
There is a circular dependency between aide-common and aide:
aide-common :Depends: aide | aide-binary
aide :Depends: aide-common (= 0.13.1-11)
Circular dependencies are known to cause problems during upgrade,
so we should try to get rid of them.
Since aide-common is a data package, it is quite likely it does not need
actually to depend on aide and removing this dependency would
remove the circular dependency, so I would suggest you do so.
