What do you mean? Do you think the buggy package should have been
uploaded to experimental? Believe me, we didn't plan the bug. Uploading
the NMU to experimental wouldn't have helped anybody, either: The
buildd's would still have been broken, and the NMU would still have been
unannounced and without a patch in the BTS (the patch was received by
the first mailhost 6 hours after the date in the changelog...)
