qt6-svg-dev 6.10.2-8 has dropped Provides: libqt6svg6-dev a month ago. Multiple
packages B-D: libqt6svg6-dev, so I think the correct transition would be filing
non-RC bugs for all of those, waiting, dropping Provides, bumping the
severities, optionally offering to do NMUs. Failing that, the bugs should have
been filed after dropping Provides. However I don't see any such bug reports,
the affected packages FTBFS in sid, and qt6-svg is unable to migrate for a
month. Are there any specific plans to finish this transition?

Not marking this RC in hopes that there are plans to fix the dependent packages
instead.

Thanks.

I see.

Please consider that in Debian the way "to give them some time to fix it
on their own" is the one I described: to file non-RC bugs before
the change or, if for some reason that wasn't done, at least to file RC
ones after it. Currently the way it is going to be fixed is, instead of
maintainers learning from the BTS that their packages need to be fixed, is
one of these:

* the maintainer tries to make a new upload, finds that their package
   FTBFS
* somebody tries to rebuild the package, finds that it FTBFS, files an RC
   bug - this is going to happen for at least some of them due to ongoing
   transitions, this is how I learned about this issue
* a routine mass QA rebuild finds that the package FTBFS, the rebuilder
   files an RC bug

This is inconvenient for everyone involved and can take indeterminate
amount of time. And, it seems, even fixed package won't migrate until all
of them get fixed and qt6-svg is unblocked.
