Hi Mechtilde, After reviewing the migration guide [1] and noting that XMLUnit2 has changes licenses from BSD to Apache 2.0, I recommend creating a new source package xmlunit2.
That will permit you to upload the new source package to unstable now instead of experimental and/or waiting until after trixie is released. During the forky (trixie+1) release cycle, we can set a release goal of updating packages that still use XMLUunit 1.x to use xmlunit-legacy. Once there are no more reverse-dependencies, we can ask for removal of xmlunit(1). Thank you for coordinating on the list and for packaging XMLUnit 2.x. Cheers, tony [1] https://github.com/xmlunit/user-guide/wiki/Migrating-from-XMLUnit-1.x-to-2.x On Thu, May 01, 2025 at 01:25:16PM +0200, Mechtilde wrote: > Hello, > > Do you have any problems if I start directly with a version 2 of xmlunit. > > It will create some more binaries > > And two of them I need for the next version of JVerein using E-Invoice. > > Regards > > Mechtilde > > Am 30.04.25 um 22:18 schrieb Vladimir Petko: > > Hi, > > > > The library has a number of reverse dependencies: libjson-java, > > apktool, xmlunit, libspring-java, maven-shade-plugin, biojava6-live, > > fop, maven, mondrian, ez-vcard, aptly, maven-repo-helper, > > jenkins-json, jgrapht, biojava4-live, libxml-security-java. > > It would be prudent to check if they build/work with the new version > > of the library.
