Notes:
I am the DM for this package. This package has been restructured
switching from X11 to Wayland. In doing this, some binaries are no
longer wayland compatible - these have become transitional packages.
Some binary package names have been updated to reflect budgie-desktop
conventions for raven widgets. The previous package name have become
transitional with a link to the new package name. This will aid
upgraders from trixie to forky.
Taken together these result in NEW package names and must go through ftp-master

I tried uploading directly from your git repo but I was unable to
build the package because of a build-depends installability issue.
Therefore, I uploaded the .dsc you provided instead.
lintian was giving me this error:
https://lintian.debian.org/tags/possible-missing-colon-in-closes.html
so I replaced closes # with Closes: #
before uploading.
Debian's NEW queue is managed by the DFSG team now and I think they
are more likely to notice lintian errors than previous NEW queue
reviewers.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
