No, see, this case was different from a normal SONAME bump. Normally when the SONAME is bumped, the old binary package remains in the repository for as long as it has rdeps. It is removed automatically _after_ all the rdeps have been rebuilt. This prevents packages from becoming temporarily uninstallable. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NBS> But in this case, the old binary was deleted by a script Jonathan ran that deletes packages that have been deleted from Debian. The bug here is that the script should only be deleting source packages, not binary packages. The binary package deletion should happen through the normal NBS process. -- Package libmpcdec3 is missing from maverick repos https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/610856 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
