Bug#638067: transition: evolution



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition

Hi,

we’d like to schedule a transition to evolution 3.0. As usual for 
evolution transitions, there is a small set of packages requiring 
sourceful uploads and more that require binNMUs. I haven’t tested 
whether they build correctly, but I don’t expect it to be harder than 
usual.

The transition needs to be done together with libgdata, which only 
implies only one extra binNMU.

In order to avoid forcing reverse dependencies to be updated to gtk+ 3
simultaneously, the evolution-data-server source package has been 
renamed to evolution-data-server3. Some binaries are simply replaced by 
the newer version, while libraries that changed soname are 
co-installable - this is especially true of libedataserverui.
Once reverse dependencies have all been updated to gtk+ 3, the plan is 
to rename back the source package to evolution-data-server and decruft 
old binaries.

The following packages need sourceful uploads, they are ready in 
experimental except for evolution-mapi which is not in testing either:
 * evolution
 * evolution-data-server3
 * evolution-exchange
 * evolution-mapi (not in testing)
 * evolution-rss
 * libgdata

The following packages need binary NMUs for libgdata:
 * totem

The following packages can be rebuilt against a newer libcamel, but 
even if they are not this should not prevent the packages from 
migrating:
 * almanah
 * deskbar-applet
 * ekiga
 * empathy
 * eweouz
 * giggle
 * gnome-panel
 * gnome-phone-manager
 * gnome-python-desktop
 * gnome-shell
 * libopensync-plugin-evolution2
 * librevolution-ruby
 * mail-notification
 * sflphone
 * syncevolution
 * tracker

The following packages will need to be updated to gtk+ 3 and 
libedataserverui-3.0 later so that e-d-s 2.30 can be dropped:
 * gnome-panel (will have its own transition)
 * sflphone
 * tracker
