Bugs against a package about the need to process some other package in Incoming don't do any good. The package maintainer has no real power to expedite the process, bug report or no bug report, and may forget to close the bug when the archive maintainers do get around to it. Package maintainers don't need bug reports telling us that a package needs processing; these kind of bugs merely elevate our blood pressure. Bottom line? DON'T FILE BUGS ABOUT THIS KIND OF PROBLEM.
