Then please follow the normal library transition procedure: - Prepare a libupnp-dev provided by pupnp-1.8 in experimental. - If reverse build dependencies of libupnp-dev do not build with the version in experimental, file bugs. - Coordinate the transition with the release team. This avoid a lot of really unnecessary changes in build dependencies. Thanks! > I'd like to create patches for all rdeps first though and vlc is my > stalking-horse.
