Hi! After uploading qtbase-opensource-src 5.3.1 to unstable without breaking
API/ABI (which would normally mean no transition needed), Sune discovered that
there is a runtime check for stuff using qobjectprivate [0]. As we have third-party
source packages (ie, not packaged by the Qt/KDE Team) we will sadly need a
transition for the small subset of private packages for every minor release
too :-(

I'm slowly preparing the rest of the Qt stack (I really didn't expected this)
and I'll be pushing the rest to experimental until we are ready or given the green
light for the transition to happen.

In case that in the meantime #752889 creates a problem for some other transition
do not heasitate to ping me (best if done both on this bug and on IRC) and
I'll upload 5.3.0 packages for what's already uploaded:

[qtbase qtdeclarative qtxmlpatterns qtscrip]-opensource-src

Thanks in advance and sorry for the inconveniences generated.
