Until yesterday, it was not possible for us to move forward with the
libunwind transition. We have been forced to ask maintainers of reverse
dependencies to keep using libunwind7-dev to ensure their packages could
migrate to testing. Therefore, there are still some uses of
libunwind7{,-dev} that we need to clean up before libunwind can migrate.
To my knowledge that includes at least:
"""
gcc-3.3: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-1)
gcc-4.4: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gcc-4.6: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gcc-4.7: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gcc-4.8: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gcc-snapshot: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gcj-4.6: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gdb: libunwind7-dev
gdb-msp430: libunwind7-dev
gnat-4.4: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gnat-4.6: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
gnat-4.8: libunwind7-dev (>= 0.98.5-6)
julia: libunwind7-dev
linux-tools: libunwind7-dev
"""
I have CC'ed the relevant maintainers,so they can fix their packages.

I know you have waited quite a bit for this, but I am afraid I need to
ask you to wait a while longer.
