Has there been any further update on the new upstream release? I note
from the bug that the hopeful timeframe was "within the next couple of
weeks" about a week and a half ago, so apologies for chasing but it
would be good to know whether this transition is imminent.
Will any of the packages require sourceful changes, and should binNMUs
suffice?
