[Bug 58129] Re: gaim 2.0 missing Sametime protocol

[Richard Laager]

Yes, "gaim" is the source package. To produce a "gaim-meanwhile" binary
package in addition to a "gaim" binary package, the "gaim" source
package would need to have "Build-Depends: libmeanwhile". libmeanwhile
(or whatever it's called) is in universe, and packages in main can't
depend on packages in universe, so if that includes Build-Depends (which
I bet it does), then separating the packages doesn't help.

I was referring to have the same source tarball (gaim-2.0.0beta3.1) be
used by two source packages ("gaim" and "gaim-meanwhile") which would
produce two binary packages (of the same names, respectively).
