Hi Robert,
> * I'm not against NMUs but if you do them, warn me _before_ doing so
Well, there were three notices before taking any action, and we are in
0-day NMU period. Also, for reasons explained below, the need for this
fixed became much mor urgent than what was thought initially. Not that
I shouldn't have sent a notice, though.

The bug is not present in testing, but having the libflac6 transition
not ready (by having packages still compiled against libflac4) _is_
blocking packages with RC fixes from testing (e.g., k3b and #289440).
I should've noted that in the changelog. For example, the
kdemultimedia upload we're preparing will read:
* Upload to rebuild against libflac6. Urgency set to high since there are
packages fixing RC bugs that can't enter sarge due to the transition not
being ready. (Closes: #289343)
> * although it's small: where is the patch for your NMU?
In the bug report, sorry I sent the wrong patch first. :(
> Anyway thanks for the NMU.
Thanks for this positive attitude.

Note that our (KDE Team) intention was to wait at least until the next
week, since we were in no hurry at all, and then you would have been
in time to fix it yourself.
However, I talked yesterday to a RM and, because of the named k3b RC
bugfix, the libflac6 transition became immediately high priority for
them. This was not expected.
Thanks for understanding and sorry for the inconveniences.
