Hi, Thanks, the changes look reasonable.

In fact, I am honestly considering to request having the trigger change reverted if 1.17.23 does not solve the issues without introduce another regression. We are one and a half month into the freeze and we still do not have a clean upgrade path on a package level. I am deeply concerned that we have been missing out on (e.g.) the systemd upgrade reports because of this. > I've delayed a bit the request because there are still some packages > with trigger cycles that have not been uploaded yet, I can start taking > a look on delayed NMUs and wait for those or upload .23 right away and > possibly prepare a .24 with those additional versioned Breaks, whichever > you prefer. > It seems that only gxine and icecc are missing now. If so, please go ahead with the .23 with versioned breaks for them as well. Worst case, I will have them removed from testing - best case, they will be fixed. I will take the political fall-out of this and notify the maintainers of the affected packages.
