Actually the 2.8 ones are transition ones. Thus the three dependent
packages will need to go in at once. Codelite is ready, made a lot of
work on maitreya and it's almost compilable. Don't know how the others
progress, will contact them. But I'm neither know anything about
guayadeque yet.
What would be the advised way? I may remove the transition packages
and users can use the leftover 2.8 packages for their (old) private
projects. But they will need to update those somewhen anyway and
dependent packages that are not updated will FTBFS no matter what.
