Subject: irssi-scripts: Depends on a transitional dummy package
Package: irssi-scripts
Version: 20050609
Severity: normal

irssi-script depends on the transitional dummy package irssi-text instead of
just irssi. While this would be OK, as irssi Provides irssi-text, apparently
it's because of the version requirement on irssi-text that it depends on it.

This bug is corrected in the latest upload of irssi-scripts (20060513) in Ubuntu Edgy. I am closing this bug, as it doesn't affect the usability or installability of the package.
