Hopefully this version of vde2 will migrate to testing in a few days (2.3.2-2 would have been migrated today if it not was for the libvdeplug2-dev issue, so I feel safe to put urgency=high for .3 and have it migrate in 2 days). Don't be in hurry: you need to fix it in _sid_ (unstable), not in testing which has previous version still (hopefully anyway). Please note that I already uploaded new version of qemu-kvm (a package which prompted me to file this bugreport) with fixed build-dependency (libvdeplug-dev | libvdeplug2-dev). I'll keep it this way for at least wheezy+, due to squeeze-backports. After the migration it's clearly deprecated to use libvdeplug-dev as build dependency. We'll take care to contact other maintainers and Do you mean libvdeplug2-dev instead of libvdeplug-dev? The latter has just been introduced, so I see no good reason to deprecate it. inform them about the change, and we'll remove again the Provides: line once it's safer to do so. Please don't do that soon, keep it for wheezy+. You'll be making it harder for squeeze-wheezy migration. For -dev packages it is not as important for libraries, but there's just no reason to be in hurry here. Sorry for the inconvenience. :-) Thank you for taking care of this! /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Don't be in hurry: you need to fix it in _sid_ (unstable), not in testing which has previous version still (hopefully anyway). Well, actually the testing version is *really* old and has definitely more bugs than the unstable one, so I'd rather not delay the migration for other 10 days. :-) Since I did no modifications in 2.3.2-3 w.r.t. 2.3.2-2 except for the Provides: line, I don't expect that 2.3.2-3 will generate many more RC bugs than 2.3.2-2 did.

We'll take care to contact other maintainers and Do you mean libvdeplug2-dev instead of libvdeplug-dev? The latter has just been introduced, so I see no good reason to deprecate it. Yes, I corrected myself in another mail. inform them about the change, and we'll remove again the Provides: line once it's safer to do so. Please don't do that soon, keep it for wheezy+. You'll be making it harder for squeeze-wheezy migration. For -dev packages it is not as important for libraries, but there's just no reason to be in hurry here. We'd just try to make sure that people stop using libvdeplug2-dev unless they need to, as sooner or later it would be nice to get rid of this package name. So it will stay as long as it's needed for smooth upgrades/migrations.
