I noticed one minor issue. The dblatex package still depends on texlive-htmlxml which currently prevents dblatex users from upgrading TeXLive. There are also some packages with makedepends on the obsolete packages mentioned above. The two obvious options are: * Make the replacements of texlive-genericextra, texlive-htmlxml and texlive-plainextra provide the obsolete packages. * Update the dependencies of all affected packages and make sure we move them from [testing] together with TeXLive 2017. Of course, a combination of both approaches is possible as well. What do you suggest? Regards, Lukas
