Candidates for removal from testing
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256
We are considering removing the following packages from testing as
they have unfixed RC bugs filed against them. The packages can be
found in the attached dd-list (or at [0]).
The packages have been selected based on the following criteria:
- The package had at least one RC bug without activity for the past
14 days.
- If a bug is assigned to multiple packages, both packages will
be affected[1].
- The RC bug affects both unstable and testing.
- The affected package does not have any reverse dependencies in
testing.
These tools[2] are rather new and therefore we have randomly chosen 10
packages from the originally generated list. These 10 packages were
manually verified to fit the criteria listed above. The full list
is available at [3], but has not been manually verified.
If the relevant RC bugs in the affected packages are not dealt with
before the 11th of Feb., the packages will be removed from testing.
Note that "dealt with" may also include downgrading a
severity-inflated bug or fixing affected versions in the BTS.
Thanks,
Niels (on behalf of the Release Team)

[1] Examples include #561903 (at submission time; it was later
reassigned to a single package).
[2] The tools are available from:
svn://svn.debian.org/svn/collab-qa/rc-buggy-leaf-packages
[3] http://release.debian.org/~nthykier/rc-buggy-leaf-pkgs-dd-list-2012-01-25
Note: Some people have confused "dconf" and "d-conf" in this list. The
former is an RC-buggy leaf package. The latter is also RC buggy, but
has plenty of reverse dependencies (and is therefore not listed). In
the particular case, they happen to share the same RC bug, #627508.
