Indeed, it's a RC bug (or equivalent) that I try to fix.
#464378 prevents liquidsoap from running after a fresh install. It's a dummy
bug and was fixed 25 days ago.
Unfortunatly, the issue was reported at the same moment as the transition
started.
I though it was good time to upload another package in order to hope to get it
into testing before we start a new transition to 3.10.2
Now it seems dependencies are not yet built on all arch, so the upload will
get stuck again....
My question now: what can we do to have a working package into testing, upload
to testing security updates ?
As a side note, although I understand the issue with transisions, this
situations is really painfull for this kind of situations, and the newcoming
transition to 3.10.2 makes even more frustrating...
Thanks for your comments..
