Hello,
I'm new to Debian and wonder, what the e-mail below might mean. I
assume, that something's wrong with my package and therefore it is not
included in Debian testing any longer, right ? And do I understand
correctly that there is a task for me (package maintainer) to "finish
the opencv transition" to make it available in Debian testing again ? If
yes, I wonder what could be meant by "finish opencv transition". Is
there a way to find out who wrote this line, then I could ask her/him.
I also wonder why there V 1.4.0-1 is listed, while in SID already V
1.4.0-2 is uploaded. Must I maybe tell someone (like a sponsor), that
the version in SID could also be added to testing ?

Message-ID:<E1ZgEyp-0000Hq-NA at franck.debian.org>
FYI: The status of the limereg source package
in Debian's testing distribution has changed.
Previous version: 1.4.0-1
Current version: (not in testing)

#20150926; done 20150927
# finish the opencv transition
Thanks, I appreciate every answer and I'm happy to put work into this, and maybe into more packages in the future, after I learned all about package maintenance,
Roelof
