But there's only one nano.  (sounds like an ad campaign)  So, nano's 
setup.hint has a line like:

requires: foo bar libintl

Later, the (then-)current nano will

requires: foo bar libintl1

but the prev: version of nano still requires libintl.  The debate is 
whether, during that transition period where prev: and curr: have 
DIFFERENT requires, if we should say

requires: foo bar libintl libintl1

to satisfy both prev and curr.
