There's no shared library so no SONAME bump. Reading debian/changelog, there used to be in the past so maybe that's what's confusing you. Current src:relion ships bin:relion and bin:relion-gui only and there are no new binary packages, so no NEW processing. > > As a last resort, if upstream doesn't react until the forky freeze, we > > can patch out this functionality (there's no need to repack the > > tarball). > > If I understand new processing correctly: Every part of the source > has to be free, no matter wheter its used or not. That's right but the issue here is not non-free code. EPL is a free software license, it's just GPL-incompatible so code licensed under EPL cannot be used by a GPLed project. > > OK but I think it would be decent to discuss with upstream first. > > That's correct - but if you do not want to create a Github login you > have trouble. I'll be in trouble if I create one.
