That happened (with a little delay) during alioth outage: beta3, then
beta4 and now beta5 have been uploaded.

I intend to push the owncloud_6 package to Sid when the new dependencies
will be available there AND an official (non-beta and non-RC) upstream
release is out. I plan to continue on keeping the experimental package
in shape with the upcoming RC in the mean time.

Among the changes in packaging, I just got rid of
owncloud-{mysql,pgsql,sqlite}, since the new database handling is not
backend-specific anymore. I reviewed the dependencies: packages needed
by apps that are not enable by default have been demoted to Recommends,
and vice-versa. I also converted the patches to be handled by gbp pq,
and added the core upstream branch as additional source (making it
easier to cherry-pick upstream patches).

I encourage anyone to test the owncloud_6 package and upgrade from
owncloud_5, and report bugs so we can release something as ready as
possible into unstable.
