Package: springlobby
Version: 0.194-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Blocks an on-going transition
Tags: sid jessie
User: freewx-maint at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: wx3.0

Dear maintainer,

We're aiming to migrate the archive to using wxwidgets3.0 instead of
wxwidgets2.8, and intend to drop wxwidgets2.8 before jessie is released.

I had springlobby down on the list of packages that were already using
wxwidgets3.0, but I just spotted that in the latest upload you've switched
springlobby from back to wxwidgets2.8.  That's working against the
on-going wxwidgets3.0 transition:

https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/wxwidgets3.0.html

What were the problems that using wxwidgets3.0 was causing?  I don't see
anything about this in the BTS, and the changelog entry doesn't mention
anything specific.

At this point in the transition (and in the jessie release cycle), I'd
definitely recommend that packages stick with wxwidgets3.0 and we work
on resolving any issues.  That way there's a good chance to actually
resolve them before the jessie freeze.

Cheers,
    Olly
