that's because: a) I consider SQLAlchemy new upstream releases stable now, so I dropped the << dependency in latest upload b) I wanted to upload it over a month ago. The << 1.1 dependency is mostly in OpenStack packages so I contacted Thomas back then. He asked me to wait 1 or 2 weeks because he's busy. I agreed to upload to experimental for now so that he can do tests and asked him to not complain later about library transition freeze (sic!). He didn't report back any problems except SQLAlchemy Migrate (about which he wanted to talk with SQLAlchemy's upstream author during OpenStack conference IIRC). I wanted to upload it later so I contacted him again, no response until yesterday when he told me I can go to hell basically. Most of packages are ready now, even without rebuild. I will rebuild all that are not in OpenStack team over the weekend. Rebuilt packages work fine with 1.0 an 1.1 (rebuild will simply remove << 1.1 dependency) -- Piotr Ożarowski Debian GNU/Linux Developer www.ozarowski.pl www.griffith.cc www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: 1D2F A898 58DA AF62 1786 2DF7 AEF6 F1A2 A745 7645
