Everything needs a sourceful upload, per the ada policy (as they rename the -dev packages). > title = "gnat-6"; > is_affected = .depends ~ /gnat-/ | .build-depends ~ /gnat-/; > is_good = .depends ~ "gnat-6" | .build-depends ~ "gnat-6"; > is_bad = .depends ~ "gnat-4.9" | .build-depends ~ "gnat-4.9"; I have added a tracker at https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/gnat-6.html Why not include gnat-5 in is_bad? @ada people: is this useful to you? Are there any changes I could make to make it better? Hopefully this helps make the transition shorter. Cheers, Emilio
