Should not it be uploaded to unstable before the transition starts?Yes indeed. I requested the permission to upload to unstable in #934630 (and I think I forwarded the message to this list).
Indeed, you did forward the message here. However, I thought that transitions were triggered only once the base package (in our case liboctave*) had entered unstable.
At any rate, managing the transitions does not seem to be a straightforward task, given the amount of collisions that exists. The auto-octave transitions collides with other 16 transitions, some of them seem to be even more complex than auto-octave.
