Hello at all,

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


Do you mean the step of reverting to 1.33, or the steps of later upgrading again to 2.0 (or later), or both?

I can help on all aspects, just tell me if you are ready to revert to 1.33 or if you prefer me doing it?

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.

My personal choice would be 2.0+ds+really1.33-1 now, then prepare the unpackaged dependencies of 2.2, and upload 2.2+ds to experimental when it is ready... and wait for the Release to happen.


Mechtilde, will you handle the upload?

Thank you,
tony
