[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#525037: kvirc has circular Depends on kvirc-data

[Bill Allombert]

Package: kvirc
Version: 2:3.4.0-3
Severity: important

Hello Debian KDE Extras Team,

There is a circular dependency between kvirc and kvirc-data:

kvirc 	        :Depends: kvirc-data (= 2:3.4.0-3)
kvirc-data 	:Depends: kvirc (>= 2:3.4.0-3)


Circular dependencies are known to cause problems during upgrade,
so we should try to get rid of them.

Since kvirc is a data package, it is quite likely it does not need
actually to depend on kvirc-data and removing this dependency would
remove the circular dependency, so I would suggest you do so.
