Hi Bas,

The transitions have been handled manually so far.
Thanks for this tracker, it seems a better way to handle things.

Best,
Angelos

Triggered by the recent spatialite-gui report, I've setup an
experimental transition tracker for the ubuntugis-unstable PPA to check
the state of the other packages.

Currently only trusty and xenial are checked, precise is not worth the
effort IMNSHO:

  http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/ubuntugis-unstable/xenial/

For trusty seems to need some more rebuilds, xenial is looking good for
the xenial packages in the PPA.

Unfortunately the ben tool used for the transition trackers, is not able
to handle the Ubuntu repositories + PPA repo setup well, it can only use
the Packages files from the PPA, so you don't see the other reverse
dependencies available in Ubuntu that haven't been rebuild with the
library package in the PPA.


Compare the list of affected packages in the trackers for Debian
unstable, Ubuntu trusty & xenial (with the 'good' checkbox checked):

* GDAL transition

unstable: http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/html/gdal.html
trusty:
http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/ubuntugis-unstable/trusty/html/gdal.html
xenial:
http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/ubuntugis-unstable/xenial/html/gdal.html

* GEOS transition

unstable: http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/html/geos.html
trusty:
http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/ubuntugis-unstable/trusty/html/geos.html
xenial:
http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/ubuntugis-unstable/xenial/html/geos.html

* GRASS transition

unstable: http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/html/grass.html
trusty:
http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/ubuntugis-unstable/trusty/html/grass.html
xenial:
http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-transitions/ubuntugis-unstable/xenial/html/grass.html

Notice how libgdal-grass is missing for xenial for example.

How are transitions in UbuntuGIS handled currently?

Kind Regards,

Bas
