ACK, thanks for the pointer!

The problem is that I'm yet unsure whether a binNMU will be
sufficient or not.  My analysis is below, and unless there'd be
objections, I'd be filing a bug against release.debian.org, with
the binNMU entries as follows.

  nmu libcgns_3.1.3.4-1 . ALL . -m 'Rebuilt against libhdf5-7 >= 1.8.8-7.1' 
  nmu nexus_4.2.1-svn1614-1 . ALL . -m 'Rebuilt against libhdf5-7 >= 1.8.8-7.1' 
  nmu r-cran-hdf5_1.6.10-1 . ALL . -m 'Rebuilt against libhdf5-7 >= 1.8.8-7.1' 
  nmu tessa_0.3.1-6 . ALL . -m 'Rebuilt against libhdf5-7 >= 1.8.8-7.1' 
  nmu udav_0.7.1.2-3 . ALL . -m 'Rebuilt against libhdf5-7 >= 1.8.8-7.1' 

AIUI, the packages affected are exactly those built against
pre-1.8.8-7.1 versions of the Source: hdf5 libraries.  That may
explain the versioned dependency, and may be a good indication
for that a binNMU will be sufficient to get the issue fixed.

hdf5 (1.8.8-7.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Non-maintainer upload.
  * Stop building the c++ libraries, nothing uses them.  And don't version the
libhdf5-7 symbols file, so the dependency can also be satisfied by the mpi
packages' Provides.
  * Use DEB_HOST_ARCH instead of DEB_BUILD_ARCH in debian/rules.
  * Don't require root for debian/rules clean.

As per http://packages.qa.debian.org/, all the packages I've
listed before entered unstable prior to 2012-02-18 (except for
Source: tessa, which was uploaded a couple of days after.)

http://packages.qa.debian.org/libc/libcgns.html
• [2012-01-24] Accepted 3.1.3.4-1 in unstable (low) (Sylvestre
  Ledru)

http://packages.qa.debian.org/n/nexus.html
• [2011-07-31] Accepted 4.2.1-svn1614-1 in unstable (low) (Tobias
  Stefan Richter)

NB: apparently, nexus was re-built once as 4.2.1-svn1614-1+b1 on
2012-01-26 (before hdf5_1.8.8-7.1, and still bearing a possibly
unwarranted versioned dependency on libhdf5-7.)

http://packages.qa.debian.org/r/r-cran-hdf5.html
• [2012-01-18] Accepted 1.6.10-1 in unstable (low) (Dirk
  Eddelbuettel)

http://packages.qa.debian.org/t/tessa.html
• [2012-02-20] Accepted 0.3.1-6 in unstable (low) (Josselin Mouette)

http://packages.qa.debian.org/u/udav.html
• [2012-01-25] Accepted 0.7.1.2-3 in unstable (low) (Salvatore
  Bonaccorso)

TIA.
