Public bug reported:
Please sync r-base 3.4.1.20170921-1 (universe) from Debian unstable
(main)
Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:
While 3.4.1.20170921-1 is a release candidate of the upcoming 3.4.2 bugfix
release, the Debian packaging includes a change from providing 'r-api-3' to
'r-api-3.4'. This will require no-change rebuilds of just about every R
package. This is due to an R ABI break that affects an unknown number of
packages already in Ubuntu (see Debian #861333).
Ben for the transition from Sébastien Villemot:
title = "r-api-3.4";
is_affected = .depends ~ /r-api-3(\.4)?/;
is_good = .depends ~ /r-api-3\.4/;
is_bad = .depends ~ /r-api-3\b/;
Changelog entries since current artful version 3.4.1-2:
r-base (3.4.1.20170921-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* Initial rc build (r73337) of R 3.4.2 expected for Sep 28
* debian/control: Package r-base-core now 'Provides: r-api-3.4' per the
Debian Release team. I still consider this to be wrong (as there was
no API change) but my hands are tied here.
* debian/compat: Increased to 9
* debian/control: Set Standards-Version: to current version
* debian/README.source: Added
