Both transition trackers (r-api-4.0 and r-api-bioc-3.11) were not very
useful to determine the order to update Bioconductor packages.
Some Bioconductor packages were green in the first tracker but red in
the second one, because they were automatically rebuild without an
upgrade.
So, it was not possible to use the first tracker to follow the upgrade
order of Bioconductor packages.
And the second tracker did not consider the r-api-4.0 rebuild order,
so some packages in the first levels were not buildable until the
dependency chain was ready for r-api-4.0.
Next time there is a transition with these two r-api virtual packages,
we should use a unique ben file for them, something like this:
title = "r-api";
is_affected = .depends ~ "r-api-3.5" | .depends ~ "r-api-4.0" |
.depends ~ "r-api-bioc-3.10" | .depends ~ "r-api-bioc-3.11";
is_good = .depends ~ "r-api-4.0" | .depends ~ "r-api-bioc-3.11";
is_bad = .depends ~ "r-api-3.5" | .depends ~ "r-api-bioc-3.10";
Best,
Dylan
