Bug#601959: Upload of Blends metapackages to testing-proposed-updates

Hi,

to address bugs #577062 and #601959 an upload of the source packages
debian-junior, debian-med and debian-science will be needed.  It
basically moves the Dependency from blends-common in
{junior,science,med}-config to a Pre-Dependency to make sure that the
needed config file is really available at configuration time.  I think
only one example diff for debian-junior is sufficient to demonstrate
the change (see attachment).

BTW, the blends-dev scripts which verify the availability of packages in
the target distribution found that the spider package will not be
released with Squeeze and thus there is another change in the changelog.
Because of this "checking what is really released feature" an upload of
all these metapackages at a time when no massive package changes are
expected any more (now-ish) seems to be reasonable anyway.

I just want to inform you about the upload as it was requested.  While
I will run some additional tests whether the problem described in the
bugs above are really fixed I would like to ask for your confirmation
to upload to testing-proposed-updates.

Kind regards and thanks for working on the release management

      Andreas.
