Recent discussions/breaks in the QGIS/GRASS interactions via the QGIS GRASS Plugin and QGIS Processing toolbox got me thinking we should probably clarify the plan/policy for where to put various versions.
Seems based on our old ppa naming: Stable should get QGIS 2.8.x LTR updates and GRASS 6.x Unstable should get QGIS 2.10+, GRASS 7+ (QGIS GRASS Plugin known to not work until at least QGIS 2.12) Of course this assumes people use stable/unstable in the manner we suggest. I actually don't know anyone who actually uses stable, since it mostly seems to have much older stuff. This also seems relevant to Mapserver, where 6.x would move to stable and 7.x could go in unstable. And GDAL 2 vs GDAL 1.x A side variation I've heard suggested is that we alias package names and files so that a transition allows both versions to be installed (would be awesome for postgis migrations). But I think that adds too much complication on the Debian side. Any other suggestions or ideas on how to handle this so end users end up with working versions. Current unstable leaves QGIS Processing toolbox not working with any GRASS for some reason. Claims it can't find GRASS (though GRASS launches fine directly).
