Initial Comment:
libpostgis1-pg74 : 1.0.0-1
This package depends on postgresql (>= 7.4.0), postgresql-contrib (>= 7.4.0) and conflicts with postgresql (>> 7.4.99) which actually is a workaround to say not postgresql 8.0.
However, postgresql version 7.4 is not provided by the postgresql package (which provides a dummy transitional 7.5.4 pkg) but by postgresql-7.4 (and postgresql-contrib-7.4).
The package has to be updated to set deps on postgresql-7.4 package (works fine) before we move to postgis for postgresql 8.0.

qgis-plugin-grass : 0.6.99+0.7.0pre1-0.debian.unstable.1-1
depends on libgdal1-grass (>= 1.2.6-0) which is not available on debian GIS nor debian unstable. I compiled it with the new libs and so I could install the plugin.
However, this requires to install libgrass which overwrites some of the libgrass0 pkg. This is one more time because the deps of libgdal1-grass contains libgrass (unstable branch) and not libgrass0 (debianGIS branch).
Dependency hell, isn't it :)

However, after some package building, I everything back in order :)

Thanks for the good work.

Oops. I had intended libgdal1-grass to be in the main
archive at this point, but it got rejected from the NEW
queue pending the C++ ABI transition. I'll upload that to
debianGIS when I get back home Friday. libgrass from the
main debian archive is the most up-to-date version.
libgrass0 from debianGIS is superceded by it, although
upgrading may require manual removal of libgrass0.
