[pkg-netfilter-team] Bug#946202: iptables should not depend on the transitional dummy package libiptc0

Source: iptables
Version: 1.8.4-1
Severity: normal

The libiptc0 description says:

 This is a transitional package. It can safely be removed.

but it can't be removed since iptables (from the same source package
iptables) depends on it.

iptables actually also already depends on libip4tc2, so that the
dependency on libiptc0 is completely useless.
