Adeodato,

My apologies and embarrassment for the extra work I have caused everyone
with this mistake.  I didn't intend to bump the SONAME, especially not
so close to freeze, but to provide the currently active branch as an
alternative, to allow other maintainers to do a phased API transition
in their own time.

Using the same source name was my error as a new packager, though Dmitri
was kind enough to review the package for me.

Current plan is:

  Include Dmitri's packaging fixes and your other bug #490536  in libupnp3

  Bump epoch on libupnp3, with Dmitri's Conflicts/Replaces so that it
  installs cleanly on systems that have installed libupnp4.

  Include Dmitri's NMU packaging fixes in libupnp4

  Re-upload libupnp4 with different source name

Might this meet with your approval or would it cause you any further
problems ?

Apologetically,

Nick
