I agree with that, I wouldn't mind uploading a new version with an entry in the NEWS file. > What could in fact still be an option is to create a influxdb0.10 (or > prefereably influxdb0.11) package so the old version is still present in > Debian. > The NEWS entry could then point users to the 'old' package.

It would be unfortunate to have to go trough NEW to upload a package that we don't even want to ship. Its not like upstream still supports 0.11. In the future, I think that one good way to handle this would be to issue a warning preinst and canceling the upgrade on user request. -- Alexandre Viau av...@debian.org
