I confirm that. Installing libgpod-nogtk-dev from hardy on gutsy produces conflict with already installed libgpod-dev.

I just ran into this too. Unable to build amarok because the libgpod-nogtk-dev dependency is missing.

Where did you get this backported package from? It doesn't appear to be in -backports. If you're taking packages from hardy, and rebuilding them for gutsy, please mark this bug as invalid - you need to fiddle and backport any libs that go with it.

Obviously Harald Sitter (the uploader of the mentioned package) did a source-upload not adjusting build-deps in debian/control (here: libgpod-dev instead of libgpod-nogtk-dev). There are no binaries from the mentioned source published, the package has state "dependency wait" on all build-machines.

Now I am upset :P

The issue is caused by the automatic backport scripts, they usually don't adept dependencies.
