Bug#675542: libcv-dev transition package should also Depend on libopencv-dev

Package: libcv-dev
Version: 2.4.9.1+dfsg-1+b1
Followup-For: Bug #675542

I have also been bitten by this and could not follow the rationale you
gave in reply to the original bug report. Could you please elaborate
where and how a dependency loop would occur by making libcv-dev depend
on libopencv-dev? Also, a transitional package should help for an easy
transition. If you need to point people to a README.Debian document
instead (which you should, honestly, have someone read over),
that transitional package is rather pointless.

Thank you!

 - Fabian
