Re: Rebuilding Debian packages
Hello I'm maintaining a package having a direct dependency on a library package changing name due to the t64 transition. Is it OK to upload a new version of this package to Debian unstable? - Tommi Wookey kirjoitti 5.3.2024 klo 13.06: Any package that has a direct dependency on a library package changing name due to the t64 transition will be rebuilt by the team managing the transition (once everything is available). i.e. package maintainers don't have to do anything specific. And this only applies to direct dependencies (on libraries), not other sorts of dependency, nor packages furtuer down the tree. I hope that answers your question?

Rebuilding Debian packages
Hello If the dependency graph of a binary package in the unstable distribution is changed (e.g. because of the 64-bit time_t transition) shall the binary package be rebuilt in the distribution? - Tommi -- Kotisivu / Homepage: http://www.iki.fi/tohoyn/ Sähköposti / E-Mail: tommi.hoynalan...@iki.fi GPG-sormenjälki / GPG fingerprint: 55F4 2477 7155 3528 5CB2 2B7A BB86 1FDE 4046 0F83 FM, Debian-ylläpitäjä / M.Sc., Debian Maintainer
