That's not caused by any transition. That's due to missing support for versioned provides on dose/stable (the one we run on wanna-build). Josch, you told me backporting dose wasn't easy because of ocaml. Can you be a bit more specific? Does the new dose version depend on a new ocaml compiler? If so, would it be easier to cherry-pick this feature? If we can't backport this, then maybe we should tell people to not use versioned provides until Stretch is released. Cheers, Emilio
