should be easy given that only two packages in our hands are rdepends

is running into:

radle Test Executor 1 finished executing tests.

Pierre, can you help? ;-)

I do not think we should spent time on a version that just became
outdated so version 4 should most probably be our target.

Libpicard-java needs an update as well - so I'd suggest to upgrade
libbarclay-java first and than see how to continue (may be together
with upstream).

Disclaimer:  All I said is probably absolutely naive and not based on
any deeper knowledge about the software involved simply guided by my gut
feeling about what usually was a sensible strategy.

Kind regards
