[Pkg-exppsy-maintainers] Bug#560606: Bug#560606: Bug#562482: pymvpa: diff for NMU version 0.4.3-1.1

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

and it would not even try to install an updated version if such is
available? i.e. proper imho way would be first to remove all
Build-Conflicts and then only satisfy Build-Depends, and then check if
Build-Conflicts detects any conflict and then only fail.

or it just removes it and then fails since it does not try to
satisfy build-depends again?

looking at install_deps of ./lib/Sbuild/Build.pm  it seems to have that
loopy behavior where first it removes conflicts and then tries to
install dependencies... may be I am reading it wrong though.

I guess, enough of theory, I will just upload -2 and see how it
goes ;)
