That the upstream prefers not to have a beta version of luajit frozen in Debian stable for, say, 2 years. He prefers his software to be distributed using the backports mechanism, and updated regularly until he decides to release 2.0. > The reason I'm asking is that there are three reverse deps, which are > currently part of testing: Hum, luajit and lua are binary compatible. luajit has some extra things in it, so we should inspect the packages in question. I can take care of that. If, as I suspect, they don't need luajit but just a lua implementation, their depdendencies can be, in accordance to their maintainers, changed to liblua5.1-dev. > uwsgi > ulatencyd > mudlet Cheers -- Enrico Tassi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
