My apologies if this is not the appropriate place to ask this, but what is the general policy in nixpkgs for library update PRs that break packages that depend on them, e.g. the libtorrent 1.2.0 update? Do you recommend that the library should be split to have multiple versions so the broken packages can use the old version? Or do you have some tag added or just close the PR? Or does it depend on the situation?
