Re: libfoo-bar-baz-perl: New upstream release
In the case of libmath-combinatorics-perl it was a good reminder that I

We seem to be under a flood of "New upstream release" bug reports
from Florian Ragwitz. I would just like to encourage you to think
carefully before migrating to a new version. Any version bump can
have compatibility problems even when it's not intended. It would
be orders of magnitude harder to fix a problem in a Perl app when
a hundred different Perl modules had just been uploaded merely to
satisfy a version-chasing whim.
Florian: what are you playing at? This looks like work for work's
sake to me.
