Note: This package exists because neither the community package dpkg nor dpkg-git pack update-alternatives. alternatives is Fedora's, this package provides Debian's update-alternatives. Further, it can correctly detect libselinux, which none of the others do to my knowledge.

Hello,

  • conflicts with dpkg-git don't have to specified
  • It fail to build with devtools, (missing libmd package for starting).
  • You're welcome to build in a clean chroot before uploading to ensuring needed depends and makedepends are met, for convenience using extra-x86_64-build from devtools package https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot , extra-x86_64-build also analyze the pkgbuild and builded package with namcap
