now that both libgcrypt11-udeb and libgpg-error0-udeb passed the NEW
queue, you could consider to re-upload libgcrypt11.

I'm not sure whether versioned build-depends help about that, though.
The versioned build-depends don't verify that the udeb is available,
after all. I thought about versioning the build-depends on
libgcrypt11-dev accordingly as well, but that could perfectly well be
achieved by installing the right version of that exact package
(libcrypt11-dev) locally, without having any repositories configured
that hold libgcrypt11-udeb.

i'd be interested in your opinion here. still unsure what to do about
it.

greetings,
 jonas
