There are 2 packages that depend on arduino-core:

Output from dak rm:

Checking reverse dependencies...
# Broken Depends:
arduino-mighty-1284p: arduino-mighty-1284p
arduino-mk: arduino-mk

Dependency problem found.


I don't know if these still work with the new arduino. If so, they will need
to be updated to have the right dependency. Otherwise, they will have to be
removed (at least from testing), as they would become uninstallable if
arduino-core goes away.

However, given the timing of the freeze, it might be better to reintroduce
arduino-core as a transitional package, and deal with the removal after the
bullseye release.

Cheers,

Ivo
