Re: Your libxmlezout upload 1.06.1-7

Hi,
Hi,
Your libxmlezout upload yesterday included an unco-ordinated library
transition (SONAME is bumped from 1 to 2).
Sorry for that.
In 'Bits from the release team' or similar on:
- 2013-12-26
- 2014-05-01
- 2014-07-05
- 2014-09-26
it was announced, reminded, and reminded again that the window for
transitions was to close on 5th September 2014. Besides being
unco-ordinated, you also missed that window. You have a reverse
dependency from liblog4ada.
Even if I am a DM for some time now, I don't fully master all the
Debian arcane. I was polishing my liblog4ada packaging.
In this case, the transition is almost self-contained since you
maintain the only reverse-dependency, and it's not in testing
anyway. It also appears that this should have happened when the new
upstream release was uploaded, and not in -7. For this reason, I
will schedule the transition as normal[1]. This is an exception, and
normally we would ask you to revert your changes.
Thanks for the transition schedule. I was catch by surprise that
libxmlezout came so fast out of NEW, liblog4ada should follow very
soon, also with a bump in SONAME because of gnat-4.9 compilation
instead of gnat-4.6.
(The reason we get uppity about unco-ordinated transitions is that
even if it's self-contained, we generally have to Do Things,
including teaching britney about the changes.)
Thanks for the explanations.
