Bill,

I am very sorry that I have not Cced everything related to the
libjpeg-transition
to you. I have honestly believed that you and everyone else involved was
following the transition plan as mentioned in #717076#225. As for the
takover
of the libjpeg62* packages it was discussed in the transition plan bug
#754988.

As for -progs package - if you think it would be useful to remove them
from
src:libjpeg-turbo, I would remove them from src:libjpeg-turbo as it's
only
transitional package to help the users to migrate from old default jpeg
library
to the new one. For the other unfortunatly this is necessary to get the
transition
going.

I'm really sorry to not have CCed before the transition have started. If
you
have any better proposal how to continue with the transition I am very
happy
to discuss it further #754988, so we keep the release team involved,
since
we are on very tight time schedule before the next stable is frozen. I'm
happy
to continue the discussion now, even thought it's a bit under time
pressure.
If there's something I could make better without too much delay I'd be
happy
doing it.

Cheers,
Ondrej
