Bug#579795: nmu: libapt dependencies
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org

This is a bit of a meta binNMU request. The apt team wants to
upload a new version with a ABI break to unstable. The version
is currently in experimental and requires rebuilds
of the packages that depend on libapt-pkg-libc6.9-6-4.8.
What is the best way forward to keep the disruption as low
as possible for the archive? Ideally after the upload of apt
to unstable the binNUMs would follow relatively quickly for
important packages like aptitude, python-apt, libept etc.
Please let us know when a good time for this is and if we should
provide a list of the individual packages.
Thanks,
Michael
