ACK.

No worries, there seems to be no collisions with other transitions anyway.

For completeness:

$ cat config/ongoing/grib-api.ben 
title = "grib-api";
is_affected = .depends ~ /libgrib-api-/;
is_good = .depends ~ /libgrib-api-1\.9\.16/;
is_bad = .depends ~ /libgrib-api-1\.9\.9/;
notes = "#673800";

Tracker is at:
  http://release.debian.org/transitions/html/grib-api.html

I'll schedule the binNMUs shortly.

Mraw,
KiBi.
