Because the transitions have started that prevented rebuilding the geos
reverse dependencies earlier, I plan to start the geos transition soon.
Ideally we wait for the gdal transition (#756867) to complete first, but
that's going to take forever because of the entanglement with the
notorious vtk* transitions.
To require as little actions from the Release Team as possible, the
BinNMUs in the above procedure will be normal uploads.
