What I intended to say here: I believe we don't need to make use of the transition tool [0]introduced some time ago, which would reject uploads until the transition is complete... 0. http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2008/04/msg00282.html > If a user of kmymoney2-plugin-aqbanking would see things break (as in, > the plugin would stop working for them) if they upgrade kmymoney2 but > not the plugin package, then it is compulsory that you enforce it by > technical means, making it impossible via dependencies to upgrade > kmymoney2 without upgrading kmymoney2-plugin-aqbanking. ... and this idea didn't come to my mind yet -- thanks for the hint. But I had no opportunity to know in advance that kmymoeny2 0.9 would break kmymoney2-plugin-aqbanking 0.9.6beta-4.

For Lenny it would not change anything at all (because kmymoney2 >= 0.9 will not migrate to Lenny due to #503654). So the only effect would be sometime post Lenny. AFAIUI this change would prevent kmymoney2 >= 0.9 to migrate to Squeeze before an accordingly recent kmymoney2-plugin-aqbanking is ready for Squeeze too. Is this really the whole point or do I miss something? Regards Micha -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
