That's (in general) sub-optimal for the release team. We try hard to
avoid entangling transitions and therefor we try to finish transitions
sooner rather than later. My preference would be that you NMU (minimal
changes) now; the maintainer can always update the pending changes after
the migration happened.
Sure thing Paul; I have uploaded an NMU which is only the patch that gets it to link to libproc2.
I know upstream made some slight changes, with the patch I sent them but it was for things like
using exit instead of return for some functions when there was a failure, but most of them used both anyway so it seemed
pretty arbitrary. If /proc is unmounted or malloc fails, you're in a world of hurt anyway.
Timo, if you need help getting the next version linked to libproc2 I've done both versions so I can help.
