Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org Usertags: transition
GNU GSL 2.7 was release a few months ago, and we now realised (in the discussion of #993324 which also included upstream) that the upstream libtool instruction were in error by _not_ leading to a new sonumber. This was corrected in (source package) gsl upload 2.7-3 to experimental, which built well. I would like to ask for a formal transition. As we saw with failing tests in dependent packages, binNMUs will not work for all package (but possibly "most"). Tentative ben file below. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- title = "gsl 2.7 transition"; is_affected = .depends ~ /libgsl-dev/; is_good = .depends ~ "libgsl26"; is_bad = .depends ~ "libgsl25"; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Let me know if I can help otherwise.
