Thanks for your concern, but don't worry: Since the rejection of Nodejs for Wheezy (in working condition for quite some time but stalled until days before freeze by a tech-ctte ruling), my hopes for getting anything done during freeze has been low. But not lower than low. > netatalk2 is not in testing. Fixing the RC bug now is too late to get > the package back into testing. Freeze != release. We do not know if too late - it might be that bugfix need zero change to the package, and that release team treats that as acceptable. > (I forgot this when I did the same with midori #768458 - the unblocked was refused.) > E: package midori not in testing That rejection is indeed quite unfortunate. My appreciation for midori is (half of) reason Jessie will not have a Debian Pure Blend for Designers: https://packages.qa.debian.org/d/debian-design.html I do still have (low but existing) hope that that midori rejection is not a definitive indication for netatalk. Release team explanation for rejecting Nodejs was lack of time in unstable, which arguably is similar for midori bugfix too, but might is not for netatalk bugfix. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
