This is a (not complete) list of the ongoing library transitions. Links to the relevant lists of bugs are provided, for NMUers convenience. Remember to tag pending the bugs you fix in the DELAYED queue. See also TransitionBestPractices.

(Personally, I would not add a transition here until the affected library has been compiled in all arches, so that bumping build-dependencies is not needed. There can be exceptions, though. --?AdeodatoSimo)

[TODO: if a way to sort by "bug has tag set by this user", claimed bugs can be listed in their own category.]

Ongoing transitions

Boost libraries (1.33.1 -> 1.34.1)

    • 20060530: mysql-dfsg-4.1 (libmysqlclient14) is gone from Etch. Transition from libmysqlclient12 progressing quickly. -- FilipusKlutiero 20060616: only courier/courier-authlib is blocking libmysqlclient12's removal, but this should only be waiting for courier's transition to testing. -- FilipusKlutiero 20060626: only kexi-mysql-driver is blocking libmysqlclient12's removal. ftp.debian.org: [http://bugs.debian.org/348870 kexi RM].
