[Pkg-freeipa-devel] Bug#924265: 389-ds-base has circular Depends on 389-ds-base-legacy-tools

[Bill Allombert]

Package: 389-ds-base
Version: 1.4.0.21-1
Severity: important

Hello Debian FreeIPA Team,

There is a circular dependency between 389-ds-base and 389-ds-base-legacy-tools:

389-ds-base 	:Depends: 389-ds-base-legacy-tools (= 1.4.0.21-1)
389-ds-base-legacy-tools 	:Depends: 389-ds-base (= 1.4.0.21-1), 389-ds-base-libs

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