I just had a quick look, so it turns out that:

- testing has "golang-golang-x-sys (= 0.0~git20181228.9a3f9b0-1)"
- unstable has "golang-golang-x-sys (=0.0~git20190412.9773273-1)"

As long as I upload a source package to unstable, it will be built
against golang-golang-x-sys from unstable, hence it will be unsuitable
for testing.

It seems that I should instead upload to *testing-proposed-update**s*,
am I correct?

As docker.io embeds golang-golang-x-sys (am I correct on that), yes.

Yes, docker being written in Golang, it's built statically against its dependencies.

Please notice that the version of docker.io in unstable right now
(18.09.1+dfsg1-7) has two bug fixes compared to testing:

- *#925224*, which was initially the reason to open this unblock bug
- *#921600*, which is a bug fix I just uploaded, and I believe should
also be part of buster

If you agree with this additional bug fix, then what version should I
use for the package:

- testing-proposed-updates: *18.09.1+dfsg1-7+deb10u1* seems suitable
- unstable: should I bump the version as well, so that it's above
18.09.1+dfsg1-7+deb10u1? Something like 18.09.1+dfsg1-7+deb11u1 (+deb11
feels strange honestly).

Sorry to bother you with these, I'm very new and learning all these
procedures.

A better version would be 18.09.1+dfsg1-7~deb10u1 (your want the same
version in tpu as in unstable, except with a *smaller* version), then
you don't need any changes to unstable and the sorting is still correct.

Of course! Somehow it didn't cross my mind, thanks for pointing that out.

O, and you want to target *buster* instead of *testing-proposed-update*.

Ok, I've just done that and uploaded the source package. Is there anything else I should do?

Thanks,
