Package: python3-protobuf Version: 36.0~rc1-1+b1 Severity: important The python3-protobuf packages in Debian experimental switched to a different version scheme:
``` $ rmadison -s unstable,experimental -a amd64 python3-protobuf python3-protobuf | 3.21.12-16 | unstable | amd64 python3-protobuf | 36.0~rc1-1+b1 | experimental | amd64 ``` But 36.0~rc1 is not the version number that is used by upstream for releases on Pypi. The current version there is 7.36.0rc1. Debian omits the major version part. I think that is confusing and python3-protobuf versions should match the versions that upstream uses for Pypi releases. Everything else seems to be very fragile for versioned dependencies on python3-protobuf. (This might require that src:protobuf overrides the "Version" field for some binary packages.) Ansgar
