Bug Description

Binary package hint: libsmokeqt4-2-dev
Binary package hint: libsmokekde4-2-dev

libsmokeqt4-2-dev requires a dependency on libsmokeqt4-2 and libsmokekde4-2-dev requires a dependency on libsmokekde4-2.
debian/libsmokeqt4-2-dev.links and debian/libsmokekde4-2-dev.links files are both wrong and not required with our cdbs.

Instead of hardcoding the dependency, it should rather use Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}. Doesn't that work?

Also, the *.links files look broken completely. Do they actually cause anything to be installed at all? If not, then they are harmless and shouldn't be included into an SRU for the sake of minimal changes.

The -dev packages have no binaries, only headers and links, so ${shlibs:Depends} would not work in that case. Also, the .links files were indeed broken, which is why they are removed in my patch.
