retitle 632439 opencv: allows incompatible versions to be installed
severity 632439 serious
thanks

I have had a more detailed look.

It would appear that incompatible versions are allowed to be installed
at the same time:

# aptitude install libcv-dev/experimental libcvaux-dev/unstable
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libcv-dev libcvaux-dev libopencv-legacy-dev{a} libopencv-legacy2.2{a}
libopencv-ml-dev{a} 
0 packages upgraded, 5 newly installed, 0 to remove and 15 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/1,926 kB of archives. After unpacking 6,439 kB will be
used.

I would suggest that the libcv-dev package should conflict with
incompatible versions of libcvaux-dev.

Additionally libcvaux-dev should also depend on libopencv-contrib-dev
and libopencv-gpu-dev.
