Bug#1060188: transition: flatbuffers

["M. Zhou" <lumin@debian.org>]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition
X-Debbugs-Cc: flatbuffers@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:flatbuffers

The flatbuffers version in unstable is rather old. I'd like to start
the transition. All reverse dependencies can be built on amd64.

Note, the package list in transition tracker is not complete.
I get the list by

   for each binary package from src:flatbuffers:
      build-rdeps package

The following list should be the complete version:

armnn [OK]
buildbot [OK]
facet-analyser [not in testing; FTBFS already]
gnome-keysign [OK]
kodi [OK]
libsigmf [OK]
magic-wormhole [OK]
magic-wormhole-mailbox-server [FTBFS already; irrelevant, #1058173]
paraview [OK]
python-autobahn [OK]
python-daphne [OK]
python-django-channels [OK]
pytorch [OK] [1]
starlette [OK]
vast [not in testing; FTBFS already]
zaqar [OK]
zlmdb [OK]

[1] pytorch is undergoing uncoordinated transition, because pytorch is
the only reverse dependency of libdnnl2/libdnnl3 and both maintained by me.
The pytorch/experimental (awaits in NEW) can be successfully built against
new flatbuffers.

I don't know how to write the ben file because not all of them
depend on libflatbuffers2 .



Ben file:

title = "flatbuffers";
is_affected = .depends ~ "libflatbuffers2" | .depends ~ "libflatbuffers23.5.26";
is_good = .depends ~ "libflatbuffers23.5.26";
is_bad = .depends ~ "libflatbuffers2";
