[pkg-ggz-maintainers] Bug#386082: ggz-kde-games: Not binNMU compatible

[Andreas Metzler]

Package: ggz-kde-games
Version: 0.0.13-2
Severity: normal

The package interdependencies look like this:

Package: ggz-kde-games
Architecture: any
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ggz-kde-games-data (= ${source:Version})

Package: ggz-kde-games-data
Architecture: all
Depends: ggz-kde-games (= ${source:Version})

This results in
--------------
Package: ggz-kde-games-data
Version: 0.0.13-2
Depends: ggz-kde-games (= 0.0.13-2)

Package: ggz-kde-games
Version: 0.0.13-2
Depends: ... ggz-kde-games-data (= 0.0.13-2)
--------------

After a binNMU the packages will be uninstallable. ggz-kde-games-data
is not rebuilt as it is binary-all, so we'd end up with:
--------------
Package: ggz-kde-games-data
Version: 0.0.13-2
Depends: ggz-kde-games (= 0.0.13-2)

Package: ggz-kde-games
Version: 0.0.13-2+b1
Depends: ... ggz-kde-games-data (= 0.0.13-2)
--------------

Note that ggz-kde-games-data's dependency is not fullfillable anymore.

I would suggest fixing this making ggz-kde-games-data's dependencies
less strict, either by turing the Depends in a Recommends (This would
also get rid of the dependency circle) or by simply dropping the
versioning:

Depends: ggz-kde-games

The versioned dependency in ggz-kde-games will still enforce the
version.
