Hello at all,

I have no problem if someone else with more knowledge about java do the next steps.

Kind regards

Mechtilde

May I suggest that we instead downgrade the version of snakeyaml back to
1.33?

Many RC bugs have been filled in (#1102778, #1102767, #1102764, #1102762
just to name a few) after version 2.0+ds was uploaded, snakeyaml itself
is not migrating because of failing autopkgtests in rdeps, and we are in
Soft Freeze so I guess trying to fix all of these issues is not worth
our time and is not "small, targeted fixes".

Since 2.0 introduces breaking API changes - see the "Backwards-incompatible"
changes in [1], I agree with Pierre that we should downgrade for Trixie.

I'm not sure how we should version it - perhaps: 2.0+ds+really1.33-1 ?

And then 2.0+ds+really2.0-1, or better yet skip 2.0 and upload 2.2+ds to
experimental, or wait until after the trixie release cycle.

Mechtilde, will you handle the upload?

Thank you,
tony
