| caraka | bit of a noob question: In Build-Depends, is it possible to get away with something like Build-Depends: foo | true, so that foo is only required as a build dependency if that release actually has the foo package? | 03:33 |
|---|---|---|
| caraka | I want to take advantage of some new stuff in Artful that isn't available in Zesty or earlier | 03:34 |
| caraka | To answer my own question: Build-Depends: libqt5charts5-dev | wget, does just fine where qtcharts exists in >= Buster/Sid/Artful but not in <= Stretch/Zesty | 05:41 |
| cjwatson | caraka: I normally use base-files on the right-hand side, but yes, that sort of trick works | 06:45 |
| cjwatson | (This sort of thing is inevitably typo-sensitive on the left-hand side, though) | 06:46 |
| caraka | interesting cjwatson, thanks. I just picked something random that I knew had low overhead. Any base file makes more sense though. :D | 07:23 |
