#55930 — Bug#846513: linux-libc-dev possibly needs dependency on corresponding linux-image

Package: linux-libc-dev
Version: 4.7.6-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

===================================================================================

I'm running linux-image-4.7.0-1-686-pae which is pinned to version 4.7.6-1 (see below).

However, linux-libc-dev can be upgraded to version 4.8.7-1 without also upgrading
the linux image, as linux-libc-dev does not depend on it.

It would seem this could cause inconsistencies with binaries built on the 4.7.6-1 image
but using the headers for 4.8.7-1.

Should linux-libc-dev depend on the linux image it corresponds to?
