Bug#1067675: library package (arch any) depending on a "common" package with too strict version constraint

[Jeremy Bícha]

Control: tags -1 -patch

I misunderstood what you were proposing in part because the "patch"
you proposed here was not for mutter and the version you pushed into
Ubuntu had a hardcoded version instead. And I didn't read carefully
enough.

To move your idea forward, I proposed
https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/libshumate/-/merge_requests/4
which also is not mutter but I think is a simpler test case which we
can then apply to other packages including mutter if it is accepted.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
