Hm, ok. But then libimager-qrcode-perl needs to (build) depend on libimager-perl >= 0.90, because that is the version where the API version was bumped to 5 (and it will be built against 0.93+dfsg-1 in unstable which also has version 5). And since there is no older version of libimager-qrcode-perl (after this migrates to testing) as it's not in stable, there can't be any partial upgrades; unless I have some thinko right now, which is also possible :) > I've canceled my nmu to give you all time to consider the alternative > solutions. Thank you; let's see what we find to be the best short-term resolution. Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
