[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#553085: telepathy-haze: needs a versioned-dep on libpurple

[Andres Salomon]

Package: telepathy-haze
Version: 0.3.2-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

Building tp-haze against libpurple-dev 2.4.3-4lenny4 succeeds in
compiling, but when run with libpurple0 2.4.3-4lenny4 all AIM logins
fail with:

haze-Message: [info] stun: using server
(haze:3669): haze-DEBUG: init_libpurple: libpurple 2.4.3 loaded (compiled against 2.4.3)

(haze:3669): tp-glib/params-DEBUG: parse_parameters: unknown parameters provided: use-ssl allow-multiple-logins

This is because data/haze.manager lists use-ssl as a param (it's a static
file, doesn't matter what version of libpurple-dev that haze is built
against), but the version of purple in lenny doesn't support it.  There
should be a versioned Dependency for haze against libpurple0 to ensure
that the params that haze uses are compatible w/ the version of libpurple0
installed.  I'm not sure if a versioned build-dep is necessary or not (I
don't think so, but I'd probably add it just to be on the safe side).

Once I upgrade the version of libpurple0 to 2.6.2 (from 2.4.3), the
'use-ssl' param is accepted and haze successfully logs in.
