Hmm, does that mean, in the future such manual action is required for
every migration to testing?
No, because what the migration software tries to prevent regressions.
IIUC,
- Some d-i packages depend on kernel module udebs.
- When i386 kernel packages were removed from testing, d-i packages
which directly or indirectly depend on them became uninstallable on i386.
- New package versions in unstable were also uninstallable on i386 but
versions in testing were already uninstallable so it was not considered
a regression and transitions to testing were not blocked.
- Then I added one of these uninstallable packages to
partman-partitioning 161 Depends, making it uninstallable too, and it
was considered a regression so its transition to testing was blocked.
- It will not happen again until a dependency is changed ?
