Since this package is not in oldstable, has relatively few users, and needs a rewrite, have you considered removal from stable and providing it through backports instead? That gives you a lot more flexibility throughout bookworm's lifetime.

Bug#1061594: bookworm-pu: package vasttrafik-cli/1.9-1
Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: bookworm User: release.debian@packages.debian.org Usertags: pu X-Debbugs-Cc: vasttrafik-...@packages.debian.org, ltw...@debian.org Control: affects -1 + src:vasttrafik-cli [ Reason ] The tool is a client to a public API. The provider of the API has shut down the public API used by that version and made a new one. https://developer.vasttrafik.se/news/3 The new version of the package that is in sid uses the new API. I just want to bump. The changes are rather extensive, it does not make sense to backport them. [ Impact ] Without this, the package is completely unusable. [ Tests ] I tried it manually. [ Risks ] There are some changes in how the data is shown. I doubt someone was parsing that output in a script. Anyway such eventual script is broken in any case. [ Checklist ] [ ] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] Major changes to use the new API. The command line is compatible but the output shows more information, so it is not entirely identical. ddiff.gz Description: application/gzip
