In the thread in debian-policy I also proposed [0] another small variation for this, which would imply a two stage transition, reducing the immediate simultaneous FTBFS. Jakub Wilk provided numbers [1] for the possible FTBFS on the non-staged scenario. thanks, guillem [0] <http://lists.debian.org/debian-policy/2011/06/msg00026.html> [1] <http://lists.debian.org/debian-policy/2011/06/msg00018.html> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
