If the list of packages to check can't be handled by my modest setup during the night, I won't check them all. > Something i've done in the past (f.e. with numpy and matplotlib) is > leveraging Lucas' archive rebuild infrastructure to run a rebuild the > rdeps with a new package, usually uploaded in experimental. When I upgrade a package with a number of rdeps I deem unreasonable for my setup, I pick some rdeps semi-randomly (mostly random, but having a look at the list to hand-pick a few promising ones, or make sure I drop problematic ones [sagemath comes to mind]). That won't guarantee nothing will break, but does detect glaring issues. And indeed, uploading to experimental and giving people a head's up if there's a thousand rdeps and you can only test 1% is important. Cheers, J.Puydt

Could that be > done? there order of thousands rdeps, i dont think it's fair to ask any individual contributor the time and resources to check that via ratt. Something i've done in the past (f.e. with numpy and matplotlib) is leveraging Lucas' archive rebuild infrastructure to run a rebuild the rdeps with a new package, usually uploaded in experimental. I think a service should be provided to developers/maintainers to test their packages against their rdeps, but it's not there yet (i prepared an initial plan for it, but never got to actually implement it).

Updating pytest
Hi all, When I updated pytest-mock, I noticed that pytest is somewhat out of date and it would be good to upgrade it. But it's quite a major package, and I don't really want to do it without a go-ahead from others. Perhaps we could upload a newer version to experimental first to see what breaks? Best wishes, Julian
