Dear Emilio,

As expected, removal hints will be needed, which I've put in 3 categories:

# Independent broken packages

   hol-light (#1073882)
   ocaml-ffmpeg (#1072440)
   ocaml-lo (#1075329)
   pa-ounit (#1073907)
   ppx-tools (#1078383)
   sks (#1073911)

What about those?

# libguestfs related packages (#1078470)

   guestfs-tools
   libguestfs
   virt-v2v
   guestfs-tools
   ceilometer-instance-poller
   ironic-python-agent
   nbdkit
   virt-p2v
   qemu-web-desktop
   oz
   kworkflow
   virtnbdbackup

I see the bug has a patch. I'd rather it gets fixed rather than removing all of that, if possible.

Done.

Those should be removed in unstable by ftp-masters, then the removal will be propagated to testing once the transition migrates.

My idea was to remove them now to ease the transition, and let them migrate back to testing later, automatically. Despite the big number of packages, this is a self-contained cluster.

See also #1078578.


I had a look a currently "REJECTED_PERMANENTLY" in excuses. There were a few autopkgtest failures that were relevant, which I fixed (last upload: why3 today). Howevever, many of them are related to the fact that i386 and armhf are no longer native (ocaml 5 dropped support for native compilation on 32-bit architectures), hence the corresponding uninstallability or autopkgtest issues for coq-related packages are irrelevant. Is britney smart enough to cope with this?


Cheers,
