Bug#906758: transition: cfitsio

[Aurelien Jarno <aurel32@debian.org>]

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

I would like to request a transition slot for cfitsio, changing the
library name from libcfitsio5 to libcfitsio7. libcfitsio7 is already in
experimental for a month. libcfitsio6 only went to experimental.

The API changes are very small, so I don't expect any big issue. I have
tried to rebuild a few times all the affected packages, but with the
currently running transitions (especially the GCC 8 and Python one),
there are always a few which FTBFS. Currently there is only munipack
(#906387). I have verified that the FTBFS is not due to the new cfitsio.
All the other packages listed on the transition page build fine on
amd64 with the new cfitsio.

Thanks,
Aurelien
