Sorry for the breakage this has caused. However minor API version bumps are supposed to introduce new API but not break existing one. They are needed to make sure packages built against sip get proper dependencies. When the major version changes, we indeed use transitions. See <https://riverbankcomputing.com/hg/sip/file/tip/siplib/sip.h.in#l62>. I will look at this bug a bit later. -- Dmitry Shachnev
