[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#974016: mrs: FTBFS with libzeep-dev 5.0.0-1: "Checking for libzeep...libzeep is not installed"

[Maarten L. Hekkelman]

I'm sorry, but mrs as it is currently in Debian is not compatible with 
libzeep version 5. It needs a major rewrite. Libzeep is a spin off 
project of mrs and has evolved a lot since then.

So either libzeep should be kept at version 3 or mrs should be removed. 
If mrs and libzeep are kept, I will not be able to release my other 
tools based on libzeep in Debian.

Upgrading mrs is of course the best option, but I won't have time to do 
that soon.

regards, -maarten
