We're now just a little over six months from the bookworm freezes beginning [1]. I think we need to make a decision on what steps to take to ensure that there will be enough time to complete the protobuf work well in advance of the freeze so things can be in a good state for the bookworm release. I don't know how the wider go ecosystem has been adapting to the breaking changes, or what other distros are doing, but maybe that could provide some guidance for what we do in Debian. For fun, this weekend I rebuilt all the reverse dependencies of golang-goprotobuf-dev, v1.5.2 that's staged in experimental. Of the 258 rdeps, only 24 failed to build. Of those: * 12 packages legitimately fail to build with the updated golang- goprotobuf-dev (notary, continuity, golang-v2ray-core, golang-github- grpc-ecosystem-grpc-gateway, golang-github-grpc-ecosystem-go-grpc- middleware, mirrorbits, golang-github-hashicorp-go-plugin, golang- github-gin-gonic-gin, golang-gopkg-rethinkdb-rethinkdb-go.v6, nomad, golang-github-rootless-containers-proto, golang-github-grpc-ecosystem- go-grpc-prometheus) * 8 packages have existing FTBFS issues (with filed bugs) in unstable, unrelated to the updated golang-goprotobuf-dev (prometheus- tplink-plug-exporter, golang-github-go-chef-chef, golang-github-viant- toolbox, debiman, cadvisor, prometheus-homeplug-exporter, golang- github-manyminds-api2go, gitlab-ci-multi-runner) * 1 package is a legitimate candidate for removal from the archive: golang-gopkg-gorethink-gorethink.v3 (no rdeps in main) * 3 packages have versions staged in experimental that build properly (gobgp, gitaly, golang-google-grpc) Mathias [1] -- https://release.debian.org/testing/freeze_policy.html
