I see, thanks. This particular instance is alreay being dealt with (#876227) so no hurries here. I think it's fine if the version contraints in gstreamer are updated in the next upload. Thanks!!

Sebastian? That's correct. The API and ABI of the libraries in gst-plugins-bad is not stable and can change every release. However only every new minor release, not micro release. So >= 1.12 < 1.13 would be sufficient here and probably would solve most of the headaches. Feel free to send me a patch or NMU directly for that, otherwise I'll get it done with the next upload. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

That's gst-plugins-bad: DEB_DH_MAKESHLIBS_ARGS_libgstreamer-plugins-bad$(gst_deb_abi) += -V "libgstreamer-plugins-bad$(gst_deb_abi) (>= $(gst_version)), libgstreamer-plugins-bad$(gst_deb_abi) (<< $(gst_version_next))" From its changelog: + Split the libraries into their own package and add a -dev package. The API of the library is not guaranteed to be stable and as such the shlibs of the library package are very strict and will require dependant libraries to get a rebuild after every new upstream version. I understand that its rdeps need to be rebuilt each time there's a new upstream version, or how is that supposed to work? Sebastian? Berto

Package: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 Version: 2.18.0-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, it looks like libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 is blocking the upgrade path for libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 1.12.3, looking at the package dependencies I spotted these constraints: libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 (>= 1.12.2), libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 (<< 1.12.3) which explain the issue. However I am not sure about why both constraints are there.
