Hi, About two monthes ago, kilobyte help me to upload jimtcl to exp. But now I have some questions about debian package transitions [0]. * Now it has displayed on the ben page[1] with "auto-" string * And it is ok to build on all arch for the previous upload(0.79+dfsg0-3) * But what is "Test rebuild reverse dependencies"? ``` vimer@dev:~$ apt-rdepends -r libjim0.79 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done libjim0.79 Reverse Depends: jimsh (>= 0.79+dfsg0-3) Reverse Depends: libjim-dev (= 0.79+dfsg0-3) Reverse Depends: openocd (>= 0.11.0-1) Reverse Depends: usb-modeswitch (>= 2.6.1-3) jimsh libjim-dev openocd Reverse Depends: hdmi2usb-mode-switch (>= 0.0.1-2) hdmi2usb-mode-switch usb-modeswitch ``` Need I to build openocd and usb-modeswitch packages with jim0.81? * Request a transition slot from the release team (reportbug release.debian.org) Should I send transition request?(sure, there is a template to copy) * Wait for ACK. Ok, I understand it. The ack from release team. * Upload to unstable after ACK. Ok, you had told me :) * NMU reverse dependencies as needed? What is the meaning? NMU is Non-maintainer upload, but why it has related with reverse dependencies? Oh, sorry, I have asked so many questions about the transitions:(I am ashamed because there is transitions doc detailed. But for me, I had to figure out the mechanism if want to maintain the package
Thank you, Bo [0]: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/ReleaseTeam/Transitions [1]: https://release.debian.org/transitions/ -- Best Regards,
