Note that this isn't and shouldn't be a hard depends as there are usecases working perfectly without 'apt' and as this is such an esoteric problem incurring the costs arising from a Depends-Breaks-loop isn't deemd as worth it. --- diff --git a/debian/control b/debian/control index 82f455287..b2ab8646d 100644 --- a/debian/control +++ b/debian/control @@ -44,6 +44,7 @@ Multi-Arch: same Pre-Depends: ${misc:Pre-Depends} Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends} Breaks: apt (<< 1.1~exp4), libapt-inst1.5 (<< 0.9.9~) +Recommends: apt (>= ${binary:Version}) Section: libs Description: package management runtime library This library provides the common functionality for searching and
