Ack. Although, you *could* help them find a solution. RC bugs in key packages are a shared responsibility in my opinion. > I could upload a version of gst-plugins-bad1.0 without the SRT plugin > for the time being so it can migrate in the meantime. I suggested to upload the current version to tpu. I'll unblock it if no further changes to what is currently in unstable and if it happens within a week or two. > If I do that and srt gets fixed before the bullseye release, will I be > able to upload a new gst-plugins-bad1.0 version that re-enables the SRT > plugin and have it migrated? It depends [1]: 1. if it entails a dropped/re-added binary, it needs to happen before the Soft Freeze (12-02-2021) 2. if it doesn't involve that, it needs to happen before the Hard Freeze (12-03-2021).
