Package: libjackasyn
Version: unknown
Severity: serious

Justification: uninstallable in unstable (policy 5.3)
Hi!
A new release of jack-audio-connection-kit (0.100.0-2) has been uploaded
to Debian unstable. The old library libjack0.80.0-0 (and
libjack0.80.0-dev) have been removed and replaced with libjack0.100.0-0
and libjack0.100.0-dev since the API changed in some parts. For most
packages that means a simple rebuild.
Since libjack0.80.0 has been removed from unstable, this is a
release-critical issue.
A few notes about how to resolve this bug:
1. Please Build-Depend only on libjack0.100.0-dev. Build-Depending
on libjack-dev as a virtual alternative allows the autobuilders to
build against the old libjack0.80.0 if they find it. (Versioned
virtual dependencies probably don't work.)
2. There are some packages (like for example xmms-jackasyn) which
"accidently" obtain a dependency on libjack0.80.0-0 but do not
Build-Depend on it. In my opinion this is incorrect. But if you want
to maintain that indirect dependency, you will have to coordinate
with the package's maintainer whose package you are build-depending
on (libjackasyn-dev in the case of xmms-jackasyn) and and only upload
your package (xmms-jackasyn; with a suitable _versioned_
build-dependency on the other package, libjackasy-dev) iff the other
package has already been uploaded (and built on as many architectures
as possible to lighten the pressure of failed builds).
3. If this transition collides with the C++ transition for your
package (because it may be/contain a C++ library), then please follow
the timeline of the C++ transition instead of this one.
(Thanks to Adeodato Simó for these hints).
A list of the packages for each maintainer and a list of the affected
source packages has been attached.
Robert.
