Source: libdc1394
Version: 2.2.6-1
Control: affects -1 + src:libdc1394-22
X-Debbugs-CC: guus@debian.org p2@debian.org

Dear libdc1394 maintainers,

Back in 2019 I mentioned the new libdc1394 upstream release in 
https://bugs.debian.org/940969 . It seems that the new version was uploaded in
a completely different source package with both -dev and library package names
changed. In this case, the tranditional way of library transition will not be
available and we must adjust the source code for all reverse-build-
dependencies manually by changing the Build-Depends: field and replace all
libdc1394-22-dev with libdc1394-dev.

This may take quite a long time. I would suggest requesting a manual
transition slot with the Release Team. There is an existing example from
src:enchant to src:enchant-2 as in 
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/enchant-2.html and you may use it
as a reference.

The new libdc1394 provides the libdc1394-22-dev as transitional library, so no transition is needed,
and rebuilds have already been performed.

(I'll open bugs to move away from libdc1394-22-dev shortly)
