Bug Description

A private package here that builds fine on Ubuntu 10.04 and 12.04 fails to build from source on Ubuntu 14.04
because it can't find opencv.pc. This file used to be provided by libopencv-core-dev, but in Ubuntu 14.04,
is now provided by libopencv-dev. The build failure arises because the package I'm building has
build dependencies on libopencv-calib3d-dev and libopencv-core-dev.

I guess I can update my private package to also have a build dependency on libopencv-dev, but this particular surprise seems
a bit mysterious. I wonder how many other apps this is going to break.
