Control: severity 856086 serious On Sat, Dec 23, 2017 at 9:23 AM, Markus Koschany <a...@debian.org> wrote: > Is there a porting guide somewhere?
I don't have one off hand. Sorry. To be clear, this is a longer list of libraries unmaintained for years that we'd like to remove for Buster that your package Depends or Build-Depends on: - gconf - libesd0 which is https://bugs.debian.org/856086 - libgconfmm-2.6-1v5 - libglademm-2.4-1v5 - libgnome2-0 - libgnomecanvasmm-2.6-1v5 I think you'll want to port to GTK+ 3 for the last 3 items on that list. > P.S.: A heads-up with a lower severity would have been nice.

In my opinion, it is early enough that you could drop the Severity to Important temporarily to give yourself a bit more time (for this bug and 856086). But eventually (maybe a month or two?), we'll come back around and want to bump the severity if this package is blocking removal for some of those dependencies. I think it makes sense to let packages that don't have concerned maintainers be autoremoved from Testing now so that the list of affected packages becomes more manageable. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
