[Simple-cdd-devel] Bug#707603: simple-cdd: please migrate from edos-debcheck to dose-distcheck

[Ralf Treinen]

Package: simple-cdd
Version: 0.3.14
User: treinen at debian.org
Usertags: edos-dose-migration

Hello,

your package depends on, or recommends, edos-debcheck. This is, since
june 2009, just a transitional package to ease the transition to the
edos-distcheck package (which now provides the edos-debcheck binary).

I plan to remove the transitional package edos-debcheck as soon as all
its reverse dependencies are replaced. Furthermore, the edos-distcheck
package itself will disappear in the near future since it is no longer
maintained upstream and superseded by dose-distcheck (which provides
the dose-debcheck binary).

Hence, please
- replace your dependency on edos-debcheck by dose-debcheck. Note however
  that this involves a change in the name of the binary (dose-debcheck),
  and there are some changes in the invocation and the output format.
  Please consult the primer [1], or ask me if you need assitance in the
  migration.
- if you don't want to do the migration to dose-* now then please replace
  the dependency on edos-debcheck by edos-distcheck. And be prepared that I
  will bother you again when edos-* migrates to dose-* ;-)

Cheers -Ralf
