Dear List, I have problems with the opencpn package.
Upstream released the 5.14 version about two months ago. As usual, I pushed a new version to sid. When everything works, as it usually does, the sid version is migrated to testing and I can make the backports which almost all Debian users use. However, opencpn in sid has become FTBFS due to problems in the glew package [1]. This problem looks complicated and not likely to be resolved shortly. I also have a libcxx-serial dependency to update [2]. This is something I control and will do. opencpn is a leaf package without reverse deps which builds just fine against testing. Given this, would it be possible to get an exception to make trixie and bookworm backports from sid rather than testing? Or, is there some other way Debian users don't have to wait for (probably) months for 5.14? I might need to make a new upload, likely after fixing libcxx-serial. But without an exception this is not a priority. Thoughts? Cheers! --alec [1] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/glew [2] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/libcxx-serial
