What I was trying to say is that there is a good chance every release will
be fumbled with the current process :) as it is really not meant for heavily
interdependent multipackage projects (as seen from some Python binding
growing pains).

Yeah, but that still leaves the question of extras-testing open. Changing
underlying versions of Qt in the middle of testing can break things (we
really don't want t-downs on unsuspecting apps because a certain Qt build is
broken), and chances are that there is sufficient overlap that there is not
a moment when no package in testing is affected.

Niels, any comments on the whole thing ? As I understand it, this is quite
different form what/how it is happening now, but have no insight how
easy/difficult it would be to implement.
