    Hi Release Team,

    Any chance you could push wxpython4.0 4.2.3+dfsg-2 to testing sooner than
    5 days from now? The version in testing right now is completely broken
    and is resulting in RC bugs piling up.

    Thanks,
    Scott

    My bad, I didn't know that was the process.

    Can you elaborate? I read from https://bugs.debian.org/1102946#21
    """
    This was due to an unfortunate ABI version script change upstream in wxWidgets, fixed by the newer upload of wxPython.
    """

    What does that mean? 4.2.2 seems to be around for a while already and 4.2.3 hasn't reached testing yet.

    Yes, so the bug was technically introduced by the wxwidgets3.2
    3.2.7+dfsg-1 update - wxWidgets upstream made an error in the version
    script which resulting in 3.2.7 being ABI-incompatible with 3.2.6,
    although it was supposed to be. I unfortunately didn't notice this until wxwidgets3.2 3.2.7+dfsg-1 had already migrated to testing. (Note to self: adding autopkgtests to wxpython4.0 would be a good idea!)

    So, it isn't the wxpython4.0 new release that fixes the issue, but rather
    just rebuilding wxpython4.0 with the unfortunately wxwidgets3.2 change.

    Thanks,
    Scott
