[Debian-med-packaging] New version of aevol available

[David Parsons]

Hi Andreas,

I am indeed aware of the new version of aevol (4.3).
However, in this version, a few executables were moved from the libexec 
directory to the bin directory. Since no manpages have been written for 
these yet, lintian issues a bunch of binary-without-manpage warnings 
that will disappear in version 4.4, which should be released in the next 
few weeks.
If you think this is not an issue, I can push the modifications to the 
SVN right now.

BTW, I've been using Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends} for the 
aevol package. This creates dependencies to recent versions of some 
packages (e.g. dep: libc6 <https://packages.debian.org/fr/sid/libc6> (>= 
2.15) where current stable version of libc6 is 2.13). This means that we 
rely on the user adding the "testing" or "unstable" repositories to 
their /etc/apt/sources.list file, which feels wrong.
Because of that, I'm considering setting dependencies manually. Is this 
a bad idea ?
Also, could you give me some input about how/when a package goes from 
testing to stable ?

Thanks,
David
