Oh, right! Thanks for that view on Andreas' mail. I indeed did not think about that case because I do nearly all Debian development work on Unstable (and occassionally on Stable when a new package starts as a quick and dirty hack to scratch my own itches at work :-). And until my reply to Andreas I also wasn't aware of when Felix actually started with this. Just knew that it wasn't a one-shot thing, but quite distributed over at least the past half year (because that's the timeframe of git commits I most often looked into in the past few weeks). Andreas: Sorry if I was a bit too opposing because of assuming that every DD uses Unstable by default. (Actually I think the Dev Ref says you should, though. ;-) Or if DDs pinned Lintian to 2.111.0 from Testing… Andreas Tille wrote: > I'll start editing lintian-overrides then. Maybe wait a bit with that. Given Lucas' comment, I feel a bit more urged to provide such a migration script. I will look into this for the next upload. No promises as of now, though.
