Hi Guillem, > But then I also noticed that the old minetest transitional package > cannot be removed because it's still depended by a bunch of packages, > including several metapackages and all minetest-mod-* packages. Yes, the minetest-mod-* packages ideally need to be renamed and updated to their latest versions. Luanti made it into Trixie just in time, but the mod packages will require more time/effort to fix, hence the transitional/empty minetest package. > I'm assuming the latter would require not only dependency updates, but > also packaging changes, including pathname relocations and source and > binary package name changes? Correct :) > I've not filed bugs for any of those as it's not clear to me what's the > plan here. And I think it'd be better for the maintainers to take care > of these as they see fit. Please, feel free to file bugs. There was some earlier efforts to update the mod packages on Salsa, but I haven't checked which were actually uploaded yet. I don't personally have or know of a solid plan to update these, so I suppose this will be on a best-effort basis by the Games Team. Cheers, Travis
