So I think an algorithm for deciding the uploads to experimental looks like this:- download source from unstable. - apply the packagename conversion to the source. - grab the debdiff. - submit the NMU diff to the BTS. - download the source again from experimental (possibly a no-op). - apply the debdiff to the source.
Except with a *lower* version number than you submitted to the BTS or in two steps below, with a higher version than you submitted to the BTS. (I assume everybody reading this realized that, but just in case.)
- if it fails to apply (meaning: debian/control has changed), skip. otherwise, build and upload to experimental. - after packages have cleared binary NEW, upload sourceful NMUs to unstable for all these packages with the same debdiff as before. - if there are any packages included in the uploads to unstable that were skipped for experimental because of different sonames there, deal with binary NEW then in unstable.
