Greetings,
possible this is not a regular transition, but in exchange I guess it
should be pretty smooth and simple ...
So some background: There are major changes coming in the area of
printing using CUPS, driven by Till Kamppeter (Cc'd), and among other
things this will introduce a library "libppd" to interact with PPD
(PostScript Printer Description) files. That one however will clash with
an existing libppd, maintained by yours truly, and after some discussion
with Till we figured the sane way was to move that old library out of
the way, name-wise.
So src:libppd has been renamed to src:libppd-legacy, and has entered
experimental yesterday. While doing so, I've fixed a longstanding
mismatch in the soname version, hence the new number libppd-legacy*1*.
Now about the formal transition procedure: There is exactly one reverse
build-dependency, src:gpr, I've already filed #1027408 for the
required changes. Taking care of this is on my list.
That should be all - if you need more information, just let me know.
Kind regards,
Christoph

This was handled in a completely different way, hence there is no need
for this transition any longer.
Have a nice day.
