Hi Teus, No problem at all on my end. Thank you for getting everything corrected so quickly. There are two additional items that need to be addressed before we can upload: - the debian/changelog causes lintian to complain (see attached) - we will need a transitional dummy package for bibledit-gtk I should have realized earlier that a transitional package would be needed. Basically, we want to make sure that users don't end up with orphaned packages on their systems. Right now if someone has bibledit-gtk installed, when the new bibledit package becomes available, the user will not see that it is the logical upgrade from bibledit-gtk. The way to handle this is to add the bibledit-gtk package back to debian/control and make it depend on bibledit. That will ensure that the right thing happens. We will need to have that transitional package in place until after the release of buster, at which time it can be removed. Please make sure that you have tested the install -> upgrade cycle from the bibledit-gtk 4.9 packages to the new bibledit 5.0 packages. That will ensure that upgrades work properly for users. Also, one additional question: is unstable the intended target for this upload? Since we are so close to release of stretch, it might be better to target the first upload to experimental.
