With apologies for the delay in doing so, I've now accepted the upload
so it will be installed in to proposed-updates later today.
Whilst I was reviewing the upload, I noticed that it makes
lib{pils,stonith}{0,-dev} in to virtual packages which heartbeat{,-dev}
provide but continues shipping them as binary packages, leading to the
installability warning displayed on
http://release.debian.org/proposed-updates/stable.html
The net effect is that dist-upgrading a pbuilder from etch to [ lenny +
the new heartbeat packages ] holds back heartbeat and related packages,
which then have to be upgraded manually; similarly one cannot simply
"apt-get upgrade" from 5.0.2 with heartbeat and libstonith0 (already a
dummy package, admittedly) installed, due to the conflict.
After a small amount of pbuilder-ing, the trivial diff attached (on top
of your lenny4 packages) appears to allow both etch -> lenny and lenny
-> lenny upgrades to Just Work[tm]. Obviously it's up to you as the
maintainer, but should you decide you wanted to incorporate the diff in
to a further stable upload, it would be likely to be accepted quite
quickly. :-)
