The new package names (kf5 versions) don't clash with the old ones and the so files have different lib names, so a transition is not really needed, at least not in the way that the release team tracks them. It would have been better if we had upload the new lib with a different source name. Right now, if we need fix something in the kde4 version we would need to upload a new source package named libkdegames-kde4 or something. > The new kdegames package has migrated to testing, presumablly under > "smooth updates" leaving out of data packages in testing. Interesting, I haven't noticed this, that leaves lskat in a weird state. I'm expecting lskat to be migrated to frameworks in 15.12, in the meantime we should probably remove lskat from testing, otherwise we would need to either upload the beta frameworks version of lskat or upload the libkdegames-kde4 version mentioned earlier. Is there any other package affected by this? > As a deriviative maintainer I'd like to know what the rough plans and > timescales are here so I can consider the best way to handle this > downstream. Do you have a preferred solution in mind? Thanks for reporting the issue. -- "It is not the task of the University to offer what society asks for, but to give what society needs." -- Edsger W.
