[pkg-GD-devel] Bug#569682: libgd2-noxpm-dev: please depend on libjpeg-dev, not libjpeg62-dev

[Bill Allombert]

Package: libgd2-noxpm-dev
Version: 2.0.36~rc1~dfsg-3.1
Severity: serious

Hello GD team,

There is a new version of libjpeg (libjpeg8) that replace libjpeg62.
libjpeg62-dev is only kept for LSB compatibility and should not be
used for building packages.

libgd2-noxpm-dev depends on libjpeg62-dev. Please change it to depends on
libjpeg-dev instead. Please also change the Build-Dependency to be on
libjpeg-dev and not libjpeg62-dev.

This dependency on libjpeg62-dev prevent packages Build-Depending on both
libgd2-noxpm-dev and libjpeg-dev to install their dependencies, due to the
conflict between libjpeg62-dev and libjpeg-dev.

Cheers,
