That's not true; libkexif0 and libkexif1 are both built from the libkexif source package, so if you upload the experimental version of libkexif to unstable, the old libkexif0 binaries will be removed. If you change the source package name, it will have to go through NEW processing, AFAIK (and probably be rejected for a gratuitous name change). > $ apt-cache rdpends libkexi0 > libkexif0 > Reverse Depends: > digikam > showimg > libkexif0-dev > kipi-plugins Given how few packages depend on this library, and given that one of them is already broken, there's probably no reason to hold off on uploading the new libkexif to unstable. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
