So I propose the following updated plan (supported by Gregor and Damyan): B1. reupload DBI-1.609 as libdbi-perl 1.610.90+is+1.609-1 that Provides: perl-dbdabi-94 B2. binNMU libdbd-*-perl [1] again with a dep-wait on the new libdbi-perl; wait until the currently broken binNMUs in squeeze are superseded At this point I think we're non-RC, effectively at square one. We can now prepare the transition properly: B3. file bugs to get a binNMU safe perl-dbdabi-N dependency into libdbd-*-perl, N==94 at this point B4. once those are fixed and DBI has seen a non-development release like 1.611, upload it with Provides: perl-dbdabi-95 Breaks: libdbd-*-perl versions older than B3. B5. then binNMU the libdbd-*-perl packages to update them to perl-dbdabi-95 [1] the arch:any libdbd-*-perl packages concerned are libdbd-mysql-perl libdbd-odbc-perl libdbd-pg-perl libdbd-sqlite2-perl libdbd-sqlite3-perl libdbd-sybase-perl and additionally two contrib ones that probably can't be binNMUed: libdbd-oracle-perl libdbd-informix-perl -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
