Thanks for your comments. I get the message! :-)
No transition is required since the libzc4 library does not have any reverse
dependencies either in unstable or testing.
Output from 'apt-cache rdepends libzc4' in unstable and testing:
libzc4
Reverse Depends:
libzc-dev
yazc
Updated the changelog following your comments and uploaded a new version
to debian mentors here:
https://mentors.debian.net/package/libzc/
Regards,
Marc
