Basically do what Sandro already mentioned in his answer:
- apply ABIManager to bump the abiN for public libraries with broken
  ABI without an SONAME bump
- upload to experimental/NEW
- prepare the other ktp-* bits to the same version of the uploaded
  ktp-common-internals
- wait until any FTP Master/Assistant/whatever decides to devote one
  minute of their day to accept the new binary in the archive and let
  packagers keep doing their job
- upload to unstable the new version of ktp-common-internals together
  with all the other ktp-* bits in one go
