I know how you feel. Unfortunately, a new, ABI incompatible, Debian package
is still better than having the previous one being removed. We have a regression
preventing us from rebuilding the old release and don't have the
resource to do better.
So this is it. If there is a strong opposition against this release,
then we will not release
again and vision_visp will get removed from Groovy.

Best,
