bitlbee  (1.0.3-1.1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * debian/control: Replace netkit-inetd dependency with a versioned
     dependency on netbase.  netbase provides the appropriate inetd
     dependency.  Closes: #382682.

1) So bitlbee used to Depends on a superserver, and 2) still needs one,
but in Debian netbase provides that. Ubuntu's netbase does not Depends
on a superserver, so bitlbee needs an explicit Depends on that, i.e.
something like "openbsd-inetd | inet-superserver".
