.SH SYNOPSIS

\&\fBpkgkde-override-sc-dev\fR [\fB\-b\fR\fIbase_version\fR] [\fB\-v\fR\fIversion\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBpkgkde-override-sc-dev-lastest\fR is a helper utility which can be used to
generate a dummy \fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR package without \fIBreaks\fR field that is
present in the original version. Original \fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR package is used
to force KDE Software Compilation modules to be built against the latest
version of the KDE Development Platform modules without bumping versions of
a bunch build dependencies for each KDE SC module. However, while
original \fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR does not cause problems when building in clean
chroots, the restrictions imposed by its \fIBreaks\fR field might be undesirable
on the maintainer system when:
.IP \(bu 4
the maintainer wants to (test)build KDE module version X.Y.A against KDE
Development Platform X.Y.B where (A > B);
.IP \(bu 4
the maintainer builds a new upstream version of the some KDE Development
Platform module on the system that has an old version of some KDE Development
Platform packages installed. For example, even if kdepimlibs does not build
depend on kdebase-workspace-dev, original \fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR may prevent
kdepimlibs X.Y.A to be built on the system which has kdebase-workspace X.Y.B
(where A > B) installed.
.PP
By default, \fBpkgkde-override-sc-dev-latest\fR generates a dummy
\&\fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR package in the current working directory that is based on the
current \f(CW\*(C`candidate\*(C'\fR version of the original \fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR (as per
apt-cache policy). You may specify a base version with the \fI\-b\fR option. The
resulting dummy \fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR override package will have
\&\f(CW\*(C`\fR\f(CIbase_version\fR\f(CW+override\*(C'\fR as its version unless another one is specified with
\&\fI\-v\fR option. Once the package is generated, you can install it like:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&  # dpkg \-\-install kde\-sc\-dev_<version>+override_all.deb
.Ve

.IP "\fB\-b\fR\fIbase_version\fR, \fB\-\-basever\fR=\fIbase_version\fR" 4
.IX Item "-bbase_version, --basever=base_version"
The version of the original \fIkde-sc-dev-latest\fR package to base an override
package on. It must be available in the APT database on the system. You may
also pass special value \f(CW\*(C`latest\*(C'\fR to select the latest available version in the
APT database. If you specify \f(CW\*(C`priority\*(C'\fR, the latest version with the highest
priority will be selection. By default (if this option is not specified),
candidate version is selected
.IP "\fB\-v\fR\fIversion\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR=\fIversion\fR" 4
.IX Item "-vversion, --version=version"
Generate an override package with the specified \f(CW\*(C`\fR\f(CIversion\fR\f(CW+override\*(C'\fR rather
than default \f(CW\*(C`\fR\f(CIbase_version\fR\f(CW+override\*(C'\fR version.
