I have tested those changes to build some packages and it works. So, I will start to deploy this in the next days. Best, Dylan [1] https://salsa.debian.org/r-pkg-team/dh-r/merge_requests/1/diffs

In my opinion, r-bioc-s4vectors needs a bunch of additional breaks, as I did in 0.18.1-3 and 0.18.1-4. This eased the migration somewhat in Ubuntu. Regards Graham
