As sneaking completely new packages into Debian takes manual intervention on behalf of the archive administrators, it usually takes a while so I'm not sure whether I could get a mopac7 package in before the freeze of the archive prior to the release. So I guess I'll stick with a hacked ghemical for the time being, will package mopac7 as soon as something got released and once mopac7 is in, I'll switch to 1.02. > > I'm currently trying to figure out how to get ghemical packaged up for > > the next Debian release.

That's easy: PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GHEMICAL, openbabel >= 1.100.2) or PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GHEMICAL, openbabel >= 1.100.2 \ mopac7 >= 0.1 \ foo >= 1.0) should do the trick.
