[Robie Basak]

Review: Approve



10:29 <rbasak> When switching the one thing in main for a particular thing, what's the expected upgrade path for users usually? Leave upgrading users with a package now in universe and release note it? Or something further?

10:36 <xnox> rbasak, we do leave people with packages in universe typically.

10:37 <xnox> rbasak, sometimes we promote the new thing via upgrade-manager quirks, but we stopped doing that, as it is fragile. seeding new stuff into metapackage works fine, as long as there is a clear successor.

10:53 <rbasak> xnox: thanks. In this case I don't think it's included in a metapackage (it's from server-supported)

10:53 <xnox> rbasak, ah, well, we do drop things on the floor (main->universe) and that is it =)

10:54 <xnox> rbasak, upon upgrade with like do-release-upgrade, it does mention that these are now community supported packages.

10:54 <rbasak> Good point

10:54 <xnox> rbasak, so people can read it, and forget that list of things =)

+1 subject to MIR approval from the MIR team.
