RFC: rails: bookworm-pu: ruby-activerecord vs ruby-arel [was: RFC: ruby-arel: obsolete, remove?]

[Georg Faerber <georg@debian.org>]

Dear team,

I recently uploaded rails 2:6.1.7.3+dfsg-2 to unstable [1] with the
following change:

  * debian/control:
    - Declare that ruby-activerecord breaks and replaces ruby-arel:
      it was merged five years ago, is therefore obsolete and to be
      removed. (Closes: #1038935)

Please see the bug for details.

I intend to do a bookworm-pu with the same change, to get ruby-arel
removed afterwards.

Is this fine with you? Do you see any potential problems?

Thanks so much in advance,
cheers,
Georg
