Hi Etienne,
with Emmanuel we checked the package that was accepted in experimental
and everything works correctly.
During the test we detected a small UI issue and I added a patch to fix
it. I pushed to salsa with a new changelog to ask for inclusion into
unstable, I hope this is the right way to do it.
As no package depends on CamiTK, there is no risk that our packages
would break another one.
The way we tested the experimental package is the following:
- create a new docker container from debian:sid
- add /etc/apt/sources.list.d/experimental.sources
- add /etc/apt/preferences.d/camitk-experimental
"""
Package: *
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 1
Package: camitk-imp
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 990
Package: libcamitk-dev
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 990
Package: camitk-config
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 990
Package: libqtpropertybrowser-dev
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 990
"""
This was necessary because otherwise, installing camitk-imp from
experimental (6.0.0) would pull libqtpropertybrowser-dev (5.2.0) from
unstable instead of 6.0.0 from experimental.
Once we installed camitk-imp we were able to run and test it.
Hope we will be back in unstable soon !
Thanks for your help,
Manik.

Good evening,
Étienne Mollier, on 2026-01-14:
Err, false start, I forgot to account for the libcamitk5 to 6
soname bump, that needs to go through experimental via New and
be coordinated with the Release Team.
Retrying: I have uploaded camitk 6.0.0-1 to the New queue. Once
it will be processed, it will be possible to coordinate with the
Release team for eventual transition.
Warning: I have changed the debian/6.0.0-1 tag to point to the
commit b4ab4e6a8d39984f879d1586b9d9aa5d37f4599e. You may need
to delete it (git tag -d debian/6.0.0-1) if you have pulled it
already.
Have a good evening, :)
