Bug#884635: transition: libupnp

[Uwe Kleine-König <ukleinek@debian.org>]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition

Hello,

Currently there are two versions of libupnp in the archive:

 - src:libupnp providing the 1.6.x branch of libupnp which is considered
   legacy by upstream
 - src:pupnp-1.8 providing the 1.8.x branch of libupnp

I want to get rid of libupnp6 converting all rdeps to the newer libupnp
package.

There are not that many reverse dependencies for libupnp6:

	amule
	amule-daemon
	djmount
	gmediarender
	gmediaserver
	libmediastreamer-base3
	linphone
	linphone-nogtk
	linux-igd
	mpd
	openclonk
	ring-daemon
	silverjuke
	vlc-plugin-base
	wmaloader

I know about mpd upstream already supporting both versions. The Debian
maintainer of vlc already invested some work in making vlc support both
versions. I'm about to send a bug about silverjuke with a patch
implementing a simple conversion which makes it support both versions.
The Debian maintainer of wmaloader asked me to report an RM bug.

James Cowgill (= maintainer of src:pupnp-1.8) already uploaded a version
of src:pupnp-1.8 providing libupnp-dev to experimental.
https://release.debian.org/transitions/ doesn't have an automatic
transition though (probably because there are two packages involved).
