Exclude pre-built binaries
Excluding OtherLanguages/CSharp might be a good idea too, it's only one
source file but it's not relevant for the Debian package and hence not
time would then need to be spend on license & copyright review for that
code.
I've pushed a change to use #PACKAGE# substitution in the symbols file
so you only need to rename the file and change the SONAME in the symbols
file whenever its bumped.
Because of the SONAME bump a transition will be required, hence the
package should be uploaded to experimental first. Once it passes NEW it
won't immediately trigger an uncoordinated transition in unstable. With
the package in experimental, and automatic ben tracker will be also
generated on release.debian.org, so you won't need to include ben
configuration in the transition bugreport (which reportbug still
generates for you).
To prepare transitions, you can use the permanent trackers on my ben
instance. It shows tiff to be only rdep which makes rebuild testing
quite easy:

See also the workflow documented in the transition documentation linked
from the tracker:

Kind Regards,
Bas
Thanks a lot for the guidance.
Indeed I have never triggered a transition before.
I still need some time for final checks on the package.
Also, when the package will be in experimental, probably I will need to
update the symbol file for architectures different form amd64.
Regarding libtiff I don't know the if it is currently able to build with
lerc4. I will check and submit a patch upstream if necessary.
In any case I will not trigger the transition process if libtiff is not
able to build with the new lerc version.
Finally I'm wondering why also gdal is not in the rdep list.
I'm pretty sure that also other drivers, beyond GTIFF, use lerc.
kind regards
