The strict dependencies in hdf5 libs prevent smooth transitions:
libhdf5-cpp-10 depends on libhdf5-10 (= 1.8.15-patch1+docs-5)
libhdf5-cpp-11 depends on libhdf5-10 (= 1.8.16+docs-1)
That means libhdf5-cpp-10 and libhdf5-cpp-11 can't coexist in testing, which
means no smooth update.
Now, I requested a decruft of the old libs from unstable, so the lot would
migrate if all the rdeps migrated as well at the same time. However, blasr
doesn't migrate because it has a new version which isn't built in a few arches.
I have opened a bug about that, and will remove it from testing in a few days if
there are no news, then hdf5 et al should go in.
@Gilles: loosing the libhdf5-cpp-11 dependency on libhdf5-10 would be nice to
avoid this in the future.
Cheers,
Emilio
