    Hello

    If the dependency graph of a binary package in the unstable distribution is changed (e.g. because of the 64-bit time_t transition) shall the binary package be rebuilt in the distribution?

    Any package that has a direct dependency on a library package changing
    name due to the t64 transition will be rebuilt by the team managing
    the transition (once everything is available). i.e. package
    maintainers don't have to do anything specific.

    And this only applies to direct dependencies (on libraries), not other
    sorts of dependency, nor packages furtuer down the tree.

    I hope that answers your question?
