Bug#793621: transition: vtk6
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition
Control: block -1 with 792883 793604 793605 793607
There is an uncoordinated, ongoing transition for vtk6.
vtk6 failed to build on armel/armhf. Also some of the rdeps (gammaray,
liggghts, nifti2dicom) currently fail to build.
Anton, as a library maintainer I would have expected you to
- coordinate the transition with the RT
- test-build the rdeps to check for FTBFS bugs
- file bugs for the rdeps, prepare patches, offer to NMU...
- not break vtk6 on some arches in the middle of the transition
Please help fix the remaining issues as this is blocking other
transitions.
Also it'd be good if you gave a status update on the vtk5 -> vtk6
transition.
Emilio
