[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#534595: samba-common-bin: Uninstallable on experimental

[Nelson A. de Oliveira]

Package: samba-common-bin
Version: 2:3.4.0~rc1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package uninstallable

Hi!

While trying to find why nmblookup isn't available anymore on my system (*),
I see this:

========

$ aptitude -t experimental install samba-common-bin

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  samba-common-bin: Depends: samba-common (>= 2:3.4.0pre1-2) but 2:3.4.0~rc1-1 is installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

Keep the following packages at their current version:
samba-common-bin [Not Installed]

Tier: Safe actions (10000)

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]

========

samba-common should depends on samba-common (>= 2:3.4.0~pre1-2) and not on
samba-common (>= 2:3.4.0pre1-2)

(*) then I saw #524661; shouldn't this split be documented at least in
NEWS.Debian? It isn't everybody that reads the Debian changelog and sometimes
it can't be clear that the user needs to now install samba-common-bin too.

Thank you!

Best regards,
Nelson
