Bug#362709: yate_0.8.7+cvs20050604-4 FTBFS: build-dep on removed libortp2-dev

Package: yate
Version: 0.8.7+cvs20050604-4
Severity: serious

The yate package can't be built from source in unstable because the -dev
package for libortp seems to be have changed its name gratuitously:  yate
build-depends on libortp2-dev, but only libortp4-dev is available.

I say that the name change seems to be gratutious, because the APIs exported
by the two sets of headers don't seem to diverge very much.  This package is
almost certainly better off with a single libortp-dev package, instead of
making the package name track an soname that has nothing to do with the
exported API.

But in any case, after updating the build-dependency to point to
libortp4-dev, yate fails to build with the problem in bug #358131; so I
can't confirm whether libortp2-dev and libortp4-dev are truly compatible.
