Package: developers-reference Version: 13.5 Severity: normal Now that the deborphan package has been removed from unstable, the section "Make transition packages deborphan compliant" in "Best Packaging Practices" is out of date and should be updated.
See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1065312 where "apt-mark auto ..." (for autoremove) is suggested as a replacement. But with it, putting transition packages to oldlibs is even more necessary. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'proposed-updates-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.6.15-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled developers-reference depends on no packages.
