Thanks!

The libgcrypt version dependency is just to make sure that libgsasl7 uses the same (or newer) libgcrypt that libgsasl was built with. If you build libgsasl against libgcrypt 1.4.4, lowering the depends to that version is fine. The libgcrypt version number gets hard coded into libgsasl, and if the libgsasl binary is used against an older libgcrypt, it will refuse to work.

Possibly all version handling is just a bad idea that causes breakage and should be reverted upstream... I'll fix that for the next libgsasl development series.
