One of my pending LP branches needs a version of dpkg that supports the v3 formats. Since Hardy doesn't have a sufficiently new version, we need to keep a backport on all Soyuz machines.
I've created a new launchpad-soyuz-dependencies metapackage which depends on a new-enough dpkg. I've also moved the existing germinate and devscripts dependencies from launchpad-dependencies to launchpad-soyuz-dependencies, as again only the Soyuz machines need them.
launchpad-developer-dependencies also now depends on launchpad-soyuz-dependencies, as the test suite needs it.
