Jessie comes with default-jre-headless (2:1.7-52) which > shadows your default-jre-headless (1:1.8-1) package. > Dear Vincent, Well, in retrospect it would have been good to declare: Depends: default-jre-headless (>= 1:1.8), default-jre-headless (<< 2:) when you first added the epoch to the Depends line. In general it's not easy to predict which future version of a package will actually break you package. The "Provides: foo-api (>= 1.8)" mentioned elsewhere in the thread sounds also neat for java packages, but it does not seem to be implemented. What I don't quite understand: are you distributing your own default-jre-headless package, with a version later than the one in Debian? I'm not sure overriding a "default" package with a custom one is a good idea. That depends on the context of course. In fact, one could argue that you should perhaps Depend on a specific JRE instead (or an bunch of JREs with | in between). But I understand you are just showing a real-life example where bumping the epoch caused headaches to "someone else". Kind regards, Thibaut.
