Build-Depends: libsvn0-dev

[Peter Samuelson]

Summary: advance notice on intent to rename a package you are
build-depending on.  No immediate action is required.

--

kdesvn, kdesdk and rapidsvn Build-Depend on libsvn0-dev at present.
I intend to rename libsvn0-dev to libsvn-dev before the etch release,
because libsvn0 will become libsvn1.  I don't yet know exactly when
this will happen - basically whenever apache 2.2 hits Debian.

No source-level changes should be needed between libsvn0 and libsvn1.
The ABI change is a matter of using 64-bit file offset parameters.

The next upload of libsvn0-dev will Provides: libsvn-dev, so you can
change your packages at that time.  (Note, since it will be a Provides,
you can't use a versioned build-dep, but that should not be needed.)  I
don't know when we'll be able to upload to unstable - that's blocking
on neon 0.25.
