Dear maintainer,

With the latest upload of cfitsio, the development library has been
changed to libcfitsio-dev from libcfitsio3-dev, as we now have only one
version of the cfitsio library in the archive. libcfitsio3-dev is now a
transitional package depending on libcfitsio-dev. The goal is to get
this package removed after the Jessie release.

cpl build-depends on libcfitsio3-dev and libcpl-dev depends
on it. Could you please change them to libcfitsio-dev, so that the
libcfitsio3-dev transitional package can later be removed? So far there
is no real urgency to do so, and thus there is no need for a specific
upload to fix this bug. That said if you prepare an upload, you can
squash this change in. I'll upgrade the severity of this bug (if still
opened) after the Jessie release.

Thanks,
Aurelien
