Do you have a Really Good Reason (tm) for your upload?I have some; - libm4ri and libm4rie change their SONAME at every release. However, the interface to the library hasn't changed for a long time. Those libraries should move to a saner SONAME handling. Upstream is aware of that: https://bitbucket.org/malb/m4ri/issue/51/move-to-saner-soname https://bitbucket.org/malb/m4rie/issue/16/move-to-saner-soname but nothing has been done yet. So, so to speak, it isn't a real library transition. At least, I (wrongly) didn't consider it as one.
Ok, I'll accept "upstream is mad" as a good reason :) This is clearly unavoidable.
Since it's only one package and you've done the testing of polybori already, I'll schedule the rebuild this time.
Could you please remember to open a binNMU bug next time so your mail doesn't risk being lost on the list?
