java-gcj-compat-dev is to be removed, but hasn't yet. I would really
really like to avoid an upload at this point, because the more uploads
there are, the bigger the chances of having *something* delay the
transition.

So, let's see if the alpha buildd manages to build brltty, and if it
doesn't, we'll talk about an upload, ok?

Don't worry about this at all: the testing migration scripts won't allow
python going to 2.5 in testing without migrating with brltty at the same
time.

Cheers,
