Yes, for some reason task-hebrew-desktop_3.56 and a few others were
removed as cruft:

We had an issue where old arch:all packages were detected as cruft when
buildds had not built the new version yet (which should no longer happen
thanks to Ivo De Decker's patch[1]), but here these are
maintainer-provided packages :/
Maybe a race between dak accepting the package from NEW (so it's only
half-installed) and a parallel process generating the cruft report based
on that half-installed state? (If this is the case, then the patch from
above should also help.)

I don't have resources to look into this in more detail currently
though. So I suggest to do an extra upload to NEW for now.
