Besides that, the dict would have needed to know which version of
xulrunner/ice* did the switch, which they ould not have, because
the switch obviously is the second step to do, not the first which would
break many dictionaries directly.

That's why the transition plan is like this. too have minimal impact on
testing transition of the package itself *and* other transitions those
packages might be in.

(Most of the new dicts are already in testing, the last ones need ~ 1 week
to be)
