Package: libdolfinx-dev
Version: 2019.2.0~git20200420.6043d6d-6
Severity: important

Hello Debian Science Team,

There is a circular dependency between libdolfinx-dev, libdolfinx-complex-dev and libdolfinx-real-dev:

libdolfinx-dev 	:Depends: libdolfinx-real-dev, libdolfinx-complex-dev
libdolfinx-complex-dev 	:Depends: libdolfinx-dev
libdolfinx-real-dev 	:Depends: libdolfinx-dev

Circular dependencies are known to cause problems during upgrade, so we
should try to avoid them.
