Hi,

dolfin is now the only reverse dependency holding up the libcgal11 transition.

What are the options?
(1) Fix dolfin without causing another transition
(2) Remove dolfin from testing
(3) Upload 1.5.0-1 from experimental to unstable
(4) ...?

dolfin has a rdep in testing, so removing it isn't (yet) an option. (Although its rdep fenics isn't going to migrate either because it depends on the version of dolfin in experimental since six weeks... what a mess.)

I've asked ftp-masters to decruft gdal making dolfin in sid uninstallable. Britney may be able to smooth-update gdal, in which case the transition can take place and the dolfin maintainers can fix the bug at their leisure.
