[Pkg-matrix-maintainers] Bug#913890: nheko: More or less broken build-dependencies ("-dev" missing in many package names)

JFTR: I'm not involved in the transition, just a user who noticed that
he can't upgrade boost in unstable because of nheko and then seeing
that it waits for build-dependencies on nearly all architectures for
50 days or so due to the missing "-dev" in the package name. That's
also why I didn't file this as RC as I wasn't sure if it really is.

I must admit that I just noticed now that it was not blocking the
transition of boost to testing as the version in testing doesn't seem
to depend ob boost. Just the amd64 version of 0.6.1-1 (the only
architecture that got built) blocked installing a newer boost on
unstable.

Nevertheless it's good to have those copy-and-paste issues fixed as
they would have surely become an issue with the next boost after 1.67
since the versioned package names were the only ones which were
resolvable if at all.

Thanks for the prompt reaction! This looks much better now:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=nheko

No more "BD-Uninstallable" for any release architecture. And the
remaining "BD-Uninstallable" for many non-release architectures are
different per architecture and hence seem to be architecture issues
and not issues with the nheko package.
