Seeing that gdm3 in wheezy was 3.4.1-8 and that "everybody" is going to
update to gdm3 >= 3.14.1-3 for jessie or the versions in jessie anyway
I'm
not sure this is required?
Is there some specific scenario where users would be running with
"unreleased", older gdm3's?
Well, partial upgrades are not “supported” per se, but they are expected
not to leave your system in an unusable state, so when there’s a
lockstep upgrade we should match it in the dependencies.
Agreed.
But I do not think the release team will allow a new version of
upower to migrate to jessie because it fixes such a (IMHO) minor issue? Do
you think they will?
And once jessie is released then really I can't see much sense of adding
that information either because by then you'll allready be running upower
and gdm3 from jessie and so this becomes a non-issue?
I.e. it becomes a pure formality without any real impact or effect.
