[Opensync-devel] opensync and Debian

[Michael B. <mb...@de...>]

Hi,

finally libsyncml-0.5.4 got uploaded to Debian unstable (due to an
accident on my side, but the pressure to drop libsoup-2.2 was ever
increasing anyway).  I also uploaded opensync-0.39 to unstable a while a
go as well.

That means opensync-0.22 will have to be removed (it doesn not work with
libsyncml-0.5.4) and as a side-effect the following plugins will have to
be removed, because there are no releases for 0.39 for them, as far as I
know:

gnokii, google-calendar, gpe, irmc, kdepim, moto, opie, palm, python
and sunbird.

As a side note, I would really suggest giving plugin maintainers the
possiblity to make delayed releases of their plugins for a new opensync
release.

I will also request the removal of all opensync packages from testing,
as 0.22 is abandoned and 0.3x is not ready - I don't see a way to
support them through another Debian release.  Sorry to say this.

Does anybody else see another way forward?
