The transition only completed because the Release Team intervened and "forced the vtk6 build to workaround the dose issue". > If so, how do I reproduce it? Try to build the affected packages on the buildds, or talk to Release Team about what they exactly did to force those builds to succeed. >> Please disable the versioned provides until it's fully supported in all >> Debian infrastructure, its support in britney is not sufficient. > > Is there a bug tracking that?

I only know that this issue was preventing the vtk6 builds on the buildds, those didn't have proper support yet at least. You should ask the buildd admins whether the fixed this issue too. #786803 is only for britney which does testing migrations, it doesn't add support for versioned provides to the buildds. I can't help you further, I was only affected by your choice to enable versioned provides. As long as they're not documented in the Debian Policy you cannot expect all tools to handle them, britney is only one of many.
