Hi, One of the big problems with testing right now is the transition of Samba, KDE, GNOME and CUPS from gnutls7 to gnutls10. It's quite difficult to have all the packages involved in this transition ready to go into Sarge at once, but the release team is confident that we're close to complete it. In order for this to happen, all packages that use libcupsys directly or indirectly (like GNOME packages using libgnomeprint) need to be valid testing candidates at the same time. This means that if one of these packages is uploaded, the counter resets and all of them need to wait for it. Two days ago we had a good chance of having the transition completed, but unfortunately one of the involved packages was uploaded and we missed the opportunity. Things are looking good again, though. Please, refrain from doing uploads of packages that depend on cupsys or a package related to the transition. If you're not sure if your package is in the list, check the dependencies of your previous upload. If your package is using libcupsys2-gnutls10 or libgnomeprint2.2, you are affected. You can also drop by #debian-release and ask. Barring new surprises, the transition should be completed by Tuesday.
