Currently libotr2* are not build from any source package in sid. That means that any packages depending on it cannot transition into testing (if it was not frozen). That also means that libotr5 cannot transition into testing (if it was not frozen). Sure it's not a problem. But if the existing status quo is kept, neither libotr5 nor the new pidgin will make it into wheezy nor jessie. Your package is not fit for inclusion in a stable release. Given your position, maybe you should file removal requests for package that still depend on libotr2. In Ubuntu, I have uploaded libotr2 source package to transition libotr5 into testing and keep all applications that use libotr2 or libotr5 installable and releasable. Thanks, for you time. -- Regards, Dmitrijs.
