Hi,

Le mer. 14 janv. 2026, 10:50, Simon Josefsson <simon@josefsson.org> a écrit :

Also, what is with NEW uploads that doesn't close any bugs? Couldn't
they be auto-rejected?

Software foo version 1.42 has a source package providing a certain set of binary packages. Software foo version 2.53 has a same source package now providing a different set of binary packages. It has to go through NEW even though there is no associated big report, so it shouldn't be rejected by default.

Did I miss something?
