    [ Steve CCed for the time64 transition entanglement. ]

    Hi!

    There are a couple of transitions that might get entangled, so I want
    to flush these in order to avoid blocking others.

    I've got several changes which I'll be pushing out today to git,
    including the canonicalization of s-s-d into /usr. I also had an
    intrusive refactoring change to the dpkg-buildpackage machinery,
    but I'm thinking I'll postpone this for now to avoid any potential
    fallout in the middle of other things.

    For the canonicalization change, even though I think the change looks
    safe, my idea was to go through experimental anyway, with an upload
    tomorrow, wait the 3 days of rigour, then upload to unstable.

    That would mean that the time64 change could then be uploaded to
    experimental not before Monday or Tuesday next week, whenever that
    gets a slot by the release team. I hope that's not an issue?

    Thanks,
    Guillem

    I think it's unrealistic at this point to expect the uploads to start before Monday of next week. Friday might actually be more realistic based on timelines and availability on my side.

    Ok, was glad to read this did not interfere with stuff then, and
    uploaded earlier today. :)
