Hi again!

Yes, in particular, there’s something you could help us with
even before starting, meaning, within the next few weeks.

https://github.com/movim/movim/wiki/Packaging-Dependency
contains a lot of “dev-master” non-versions in the column
“Required version”, could you put real version numbers in
there which we need to meet?

This is for if the needed version is not yet released AT
THE CURRENT TIME. Please don’t just write dev-master in
there then, but somehting like “larger than x.y, probably
x.z will be enough” or so.

This is a concern of the php-symfony maintainer: please
ensure we won’t need a version newer than the current
LTS branch, that is, 3.4, because otherwise, it might
not be supportable for the entire lifetime of a Debian
stable release.

Thanks in advance,
