If it helps I can add a an updated debconf translation for danish, so that it
becomes a doc update.

Yes, please wait till heimdal migrates.

heimdal is already hinted, the only remaining problem is that
cyrus-sasl2-heimdal-dbg gets broken:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  cyrus-sasl2-heimdal-dbg: Depends: cyrus-sasl2-dbg (= 2.1.22.dfsg1-22)
but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

This is a serious bug in cyrus-sasl2-heimdal.

Cheers

How is the heimdal transition going? Are all the hints in place? I though you 
had to put all the packages that are to go in together on the same hint line.

Ok, thank you; I scheduled the binNMUs now, which are mostly ready now,
and will migrate the new version next.

Heh, I'm guessing there's a typo there: we would like /you/ to notify
/us/ in advance, yes. :-)

Yes, that's ok.

It looks correct to me for the krb5 interface.  It looks like some of the
internal libraries that Heimdal uses (maybe libroken and libasn1, although
I'm not sure) aren't using symbol versioning, but since that isn't the API
that's shared with MIT Kerberos, that shouldn't matter in practice.  I
doubt this is a regression from the previous state; they were probably
never using symbol versioning.

> Hello,

Hello Brian, I've been meaning to mail you for some time, and this mail
of yours is the perfect excuse!

The issue I wanted to mention was related to this:

The problem is that version of heimdal bumped the SONAME of one of the
libraries, namely libkrb5-24-heimdal -> libkrb5-25-heimdal.

Nowadays it's really encouraged that any SONAME bump is checked with the
release team first. The release team needs to be notified anyway in
order for to the new package to migrate, because it needs manual
hinting, so we take chance and ask that this notification is done
*before* uploading to unstable, in case there may be conflicting ongoing
transitions.

We didn't receive any notification about heimdal 1.2.dfsg.1-1 (neither
before, not after), so nobody was aware action on our part was needed...

The reason I wanted to mention this to you is that some months there was
another similar, uncoordinated transition, and that one did really
entagle itself with other transitions at the time, if I recall correctly.

So, bottom line: we'd appreciate if you could coordinate with us in the
future!

As for the freeze exception, since 1.2.dfsg.1-1 was granted an automatic
exception (because it was in unstable in time), plus together with
1.2.dfsg.1-2 it fixes RC bugs in testing, then yes, it can migrate.

Yes, I agree it would be good. I'm CCing Steve Langasek and Russ
Allbery; I think they have the required knowledge to do the checking,
and hopefully can donate a bit of their time for this. (Many thanks in
advance!)

I'll take care of that once I get an ack that the version in unstable is
indeed good. After all the rebuilds are done, I'll migrate heimdal and
its reverse dependencies to testing.
