Hello,
When installing a new package with dpkg dependencies are checked
correctly. But when I try to update an existing package, the
dependencies are checked against the old package, not against new
package. Thus the new package can break dependencies.
Attached patch fixes this problem. It should apply cleanly to todays
snapshot.
