I uploaded to unstable new netexpect packages built against the new Wireshark 1.8.0 packages yesterday as soon as I saw that Wireshark 1.8.0 had been accepted into unstable.
Note that 1.8.0~rc1-1 has been uploaded to the NEW queue weeks ago... [1]In that case, I'm not entirely sure why the transition bug wasn't raised "weeks ago"... nor what the logic is behind not having uploaded the release version already, given that the upstream schedule claims it was released a week ago.In the past we managed the "transition" ourselves by quickly updating netexpect after wireshark. Since netexpect does not have too many users yet and netexpect is the only package depending on wireshark it seemed to be a better solution over involving the release team. Should we always open a transition bug?
Last time, for the Wireshark 1.4 to 1.6 transition, we were not close to a freeze, but Bálint and I coordinated the transition just like we did this time. The end result was the same -- all packages and their dependencies hitting unstable on the same day.
Cheers, Eloy Paris.-
