Hi release team!
I'd like to update Erlang for forky to new major release Erlang 29
which is already released upstream and is uploaded to experimental.
The current Erlang version in unstabl is 27, and as far as I know
there weren't any major breackages in Erlang 28 and 29, so for the
most packages it will be sufficient just to make binNMUs.
Currently, there are only 4 packages in unstable which FTBFS with Erlang
29:
elixir-lang (working version 1.19.5 is in experimental, thoug I think I'll wait
until 1.20 is released upstream with official support for Erlang 29)
erlang-erlware-commons (patch is prepared)
erlang-erlydtl (patch is prepared)
erlang-jose (patch is prepared)
and one package which depends on Erlang implicitly via Elixir:
erlang-hex (updated version is in experimental)
Now, I'm planning to:
1. send bugreports to the packages which FTBFS with severity normal;
2. upload Erlang 29 and Elixir to unstable right after Elixir 1.20 is released
3. bump severity of FTBFS bugs to serious;
4. make binNMUS for all affected packages (there are 66 of them, two of
which aren't in testing)
Cheers!
