libcurl3-dev depreciated (was: Bug#426393: asterisk: uninstallable due to dependancy on libcurl3)

[Mark Purcell]

Dear libcurl team,

When you depreciate libcurl3-dev all downstream dependant packages require 
at least a rebuild, if not a reload to change the Build-Depends: from libcurl3-dev
to libcurl4-dev.

At the minimum, could you send a courtesy email to all downstream packages (Cc:)
so we know we need to upload after your library transition. Best option would be
for you to file a bug report against those packages which will require a reload
after your library/dev transition. Otherwise the users will trickle bug reports
(attached) through to individual packages...

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: Bug#426393: asterisk: uninstallable due to dependancy on libcurl3
Date: Mon, 28 May 2007
From: Richard Antony Burton <richardaburton at hotmail.com>
To: Debian Bug Tracking System <submit at bugs.debian.org>

Package: asterisk
Version: 1:1.4.4~dfsg-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Depends on libcurl3 that is no longer available, making package uninstallable.

Richard.
