I don’t think that is the core of the problem. The current version of selenium-webdriver is 4.38.0, which is satisfied by the >= 4.4.0 constraint. Rather, I think the cause of the problem is that redmine is caught up in the auto-upperlimit-ruby-zip transition, but doesn’t know about it. https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-upperlimit-ruby-zip.html I think I am going to place upper-limit constraints in debian control to match those in the Gemfile, which should allow Debian to add redmine to the list of these types of transitions. That won’t fix the problem immediately, but it will fix it in the future once the version with the upper-limit constraints has migrated to testing. -- Soren Stoutner [email protected]
