Thereafter it needs probably redoing http://release.debian.org/transitions/html/sgml-base.html with the fixed debhelper - this will need sourceful uploads (NMUs) since most of the affected packages are arch:all > Question: Can we wheezy-ignore this issue? If this gets ignored for wheezy we can also close the bug as wontfix, as for wheezy+1 there won't be any affected packages from the squeeze age be left. The only way to trigger the bug would be install $PKG (from squeeze) remove $PKG (don't purge) distupgrade (to wheezy) distupgrade (to wheezy+1) install $PKG (from wheezy+1) but I think in that case it would be ok to show the conffile prompt (and that would be essentially an unsupported squeeze->wheezy+1 upgrade for $PKG) Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
