Hi Andrej, > xml-core depends on sed (>=3D 4.1.2-8). However, looking at sed, I don=E2= =80=99t > see the reason why this particular version, and it=E2=80=99s not even in > oldoldstable anymore anyway. Please consider dropping the versioned > requirement and replacing it with a plain one. Just FYI this specific version was fixing #248910. I agree this can be removed as this condition is supported by all the debian versions we have, However I need to do a bit of digging on whether we need to have sed as a dependency at all. It looks like this dependency wouldn't be needed anymore after #687109 but I'll need to do some testing to confirm. Thanks, Joseph
