Re: Fwd: Re: xcb-util: Changes to 'debian-unstable'

You said "it's not worth the trouble" - I don't think it's any signficant trouble...

There's no transition required that I know of - all existing packages will continue to build fine using the transitional libxcb-util0-dev package and over time build-dependencies will be updated and this package can be removed. It's marked as oldlibs/extra so the automatic tools will pick this up.
