Source: wlroots
Version: 0.12.0-2
Severity: serious
X-Debbugs-Cc: sramac...@debian.org
The upload of 0.12.0-2 just started a transition. Note that we are in
soft freeze and hence transitions are no longer acceptable for bullseye.
The purpose of this bug is to block wlroots from migrating to testing.
Please either revert to 0.11.0 or keep this bug open until after the
release of bullseye.
Cheers

As bullseye is currently being released, let's close this one.
