It's a bit unfortunate that d-i-n-i is huge and not too useful to upload
during the release cycle in that we get to only notice this kind of
things ("woops, we bumped the debhelper version compat in that package
too but it never reached testing") during the freeze; sorry about that.
Since d-i-n-i is basically about collecting files in packages (see
get-images.sh), and about shipping them through various binaries, this
kind of things is /possibly/ harmless, but I really didn't check
anything. It would probably be helpful to double check that dh 7 and dh
9 lead to identical binaries, and maybe think about letting this change
slide with the rest (but so far I really have no opinion on this).
In case the explicit no-go stays (which I'd consider fair, to be
honest), I'd rather avoid doing nasty things with the release version
numbering (see Holger's reply), and get the revert through an upload
matching RC 2. Which means getting d-i-n-i even later in testing but
that would probably be safer.
On a slightly different note: Why we're still using a non-debian.org
mirror (MIRROR in debian/rules) is still beyond me.
