This is an unblock request for a package I've not yet uploaded, since I
wanted to get your guidance on how you'd prefer to get this update.
On March 15th, the Duo API is changing to require pagination be used for
a couple of the API calls implemented by libnet-duo-perl. I want to get
the fix for that into the next stable release, since it otherwise breaks
part of the module. (Bug is #924127.)
There's a new upstream release (1.02) that fixes this as the only code
changes (which also requires a fair bit of work on the test suite), but
also includes various documentation changes. I've prepared a regular
packaging of that new upstream release, including such things as bumping
the debhelper compat level and the standards version. However, I know
we're pretty late in the release cycle.
Would you rather that I:
* Upload 1.02-1 to unstable and have you unblock that for propagation to
testing as a regular package update? This is a leaf package, so I'm
pretty confident that this should be safe, but it has extraneous changes
compared to only fixing this bug.
* Upload 1.02-1 to experimental and prepare a more limited update for
unstable that only backports the relevant upstream change? This will
still require changes to the test suite, so it's not a super-tiny change,
and will still include all the code changes in 1.02-1 (just not the
documentation and packaging changes).
If you have no strong preference, I'd prefer the first since it's simpler,
but I wanted to ask before uploading the package to unstable so that I
didn't lock unstable into the new upstream version and packaging.
