I can see where you're coming from with due to the C library is what's depending on the common package. Over in python packaging I regularly end up with dependencies that have Breaks: some older version of a package that depends on the package declaring the breaks. As an example python3-pandas heavily uses the Breaks rules. Using your example of the soname bump, I think this might work on the 4.14 -common package. Breaks: libgtk-4-1 (<< 4.14), libgtk-4-2 (<< 4.14)? It may be too annoying to keep updated and so might still not be worth doing. > > The t64 transition was exceptionally disruptive.

This part is very true, and I need to go do it, I was just wishing for a stronger hint that I really needed to do a full-upgrade now. (And also it took me a while to figure this out.) Diane
