I bumped to a snapshot release because several people asked me to do so. I missed the point that libxtables (which is in src:iptables) added a few new symbols that triggers transitions. So this was a mistake on my side. I did not test rdeps before upload for the same reason. However, after all of this was triggered, I checked them, and all of them seems fine. None of them seems to have a strong coupling with the libxtables version. Doing a circumvent of the release/freeze process was never my intention. I'm fine with any further steps you may take.
