Source: golang-github-prometheus-client-golang Version: 0.9.0~pre1+git20180417.82f5ff1-2 Severity: serious Justification: breaks reverse dependency Affects: src:golang-github-docker-go-metrics User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: breaks
Version 0.9.0~pre1+git20180417.82f5ff1-2 of golang-github-prometheus-client-golang causes FTBFS of golang-github-docker-go-metrics. This bug is to block migration of golang-github-prometheus-client-golang until golang-github-docker-go-metrics has been updated to cope with the new version. golang-github-prometheus-client-golang could (and in my opinion should) declare a "Breaks: golang-github-docker-go-metrics (<= 0.0~git20170503.0.d466d4f-1)" relation (or better, if the new version is -2 a "Breaks: golang-github-docker-go-metrics (<< 0.0~git20170503.0.d466d4f-2~)").
