Control: severity -1 important 03.03.2024 13:21, Eric Valette :
Package: libsmbclient0 Version: 2:4.19.5+dfsg-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
This is wrong, in my opinion. The effect of this bug on platforms unaffected by time64_t transition is exactly the same as on platforms affected by the transition. That is, on armhf and a few other platforms, *all* relevant packages are being renamed without the compatible Provides, so all reverse-dependencies has to be rebuilt. On other platforms though (like amd64), the actual ABI isn't changed and the rebuild/rename isn't really necessary, the new library provides exactly the same ABI as the old one. The fact that the new library does not have proper Provides: just means it will be fixed a bit later when all reverse dependencies will be rebuilt, that's all. In other worlds, the package is exactly as useful as before, it's just inconvenience which will be fixed soon, nothing more. /mjt
