So on a new ABI-incompatible version the library maintainer should contact the maintainers of all dependendent packages and arrange a new upload as soon as the new version gets cleared from the NEW queue? The timespan until the other uploads are installed into the archives is only a problem if the melanie run by the ftp-masters happens in between, correct?
