severity 557929 serious
thanks

Hi,

I'm going to set this bug report again to an release critical
severity, for the plain reason that we cannot release Debian with this
bug present.

The bug severity is just a helper to make sure the release management
knows about all release critical issues, and can monitor them. Nothing
more but nothing less, so please keep this bug at that severity.


About the bug itself: How about e.g. adding an transition package
libkrb53 to unstable which depends on libk5crypto and also libk5crypto
breaks the lenny libkrb53. That together would makes sure that the
breakage doesn't happen? That transition package can then be dropped
after one release cycle. (Please just say if that's a silly idea.)

The same is true for all other split off packages of course.


Please also remember that easy and painless upgrades are one of
Debians major strength, together with really stable software and
getting rid of all the minor hassels that make the life of system
administrators hard. I'd like to see squeeze as another success story
from Debian, as our previous release already are.


Cheers,
Andi
