Hello.

Ada packages Build-Depend: gnat, a virtual package Depending on the
default compiler.
In unstable,     gnat/7.1   Depends: gnat-7.
In experimental, gnat/8.0.0 Depends: gnat-8.

In addition, Ada libraries directly Build-Depend: "gnat-VERSION",
which also provides what could be expected in libgnat-8-dev if such a
package existed.

In this language, each change in the source of a library or its
recursive dependencies requires a renaming of the -dev package.
All reverse dependencies must then update their Build-Depends.
The update to gnat-8 requires a renaming of all -dev packages,
in addition to the traditional change of Shared Object Version.

In order to reduce the number of such slow transitions, many unrelated
changes (like new upstream releases) have been introduced with a
single new name for the -dev package.

Now, everything seems ready.

Ben file:

title = "gnat-8";
is_affected = .build-depends ~ "gnat";
is_good     = .depends       ~ "libgnat-8";
is_bad      = .depends       ~ /libgnat-[1-7]/;


These packages are ready in experimental.
A bin-NMU to unstable should be sufficient.
They Build-Depend on each other via versioned packages (gnat-8,
libfooVERSION-dev...) so the upload order should not matter.

These packages are ready in unstable, but are not libraries.
They Build-Depend: gnat without version restriction.
They only need a dep-wait against gnat (>= 8).

This package is ready in experimental, but is not a library.
It Build-Depend: gnat without version restriction.
I suppose that it should be reuploaded to unstable,
either after gnat/8.0.0
or with a dep-wait for gnat (>= 8) enforcing the build order.

No one volunteers to update these packages.
They Build-Depend: gnat-7 and would block the other ones.

Please remove them from testing.

polyorb
spark


What should we do now?
Thanks.

That looks finished indeed. Let's close this bug and I will archive the
transition tracker.

Cheers,
