[Bug 689217] Re: Please backport mpich2/1.3.1-1 from natty

[Evan Broder]

Ah, sorry - I missed the SONAME bump since the new version hasn't
actually been published yet. In general, we do monitor both r-deps and
r-b-deps as part of the backports testing process - see the discussion
at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports

In this particular case, you're right that the r-deps won't be affected
by the SONAME bump. However, the r-b-deps are still relevant, since the
packages b-dep on libmpich2-dev, which does not contain the SONAME. If
they were rebuilt with the backport installed, they would build against
the backport, so we need to make sure that still works.
