Right, at least in Ubuntu-land that's OK, it just stays blocked in proposed until it can
build. It also ends up putting pressure on AA to review/release the thing in NEW for
it. Wasn't sure if that's appropriate in Debian and why I was asking.
I'll get the packaging ready in the debian-next branch and it should hopefully just be
a matter of pulling the trigger when released from NEW.
