Dear maintainer of (one or more) netcdf related package(s), I'm going to migrate ASAP current 4.1.1 version to 4.1.3 in sid. The new package provides a new SONAME for the C interface and maybe you already noticed that current netCDF is now splitted in a few different packages (one for each language binding among C, C++ and Fortran and one for the libCF add-on) to allow next (and future) smooth upgrades.
The migration could impact or not your package(s) (should not), and it would be nice if you performed your tests against the 4.1.3 package available _now_ in experimental. As usual d-release is in CC and contacted for pre-alerting and asking for a GO! at the right moment. A final word about related issues on parallel-HDF5 and parallel-netCDF: current netcdfpackage is a serial-only, and general idea is about patching in order to separate sonames/libs (to allow a nice coexistence of serial/parallel flavors), but it is not something that will happen anytime soon in the netcdf world. Maybe it should be done in HDF5 before (some tests need to be conducted, too). -- Francesco P.
