Got it. I assume you need a different binary package name just for the transition. However, this seems avoidable as well. The following Ben tracker seems sufficient for me: Affected: .depends ~ /\blibjson-simple-java\b/ Good: .depends ~ /\blibjson-simple-java\b/ >= "3.0" This way all reverse dependencies will be listed as affected, but only the ones that explicitly say that they depend on json-simple-java >= 3.0 will be treated as already migrated ones. Hope this helps, Andrius
