Source: fonts-urw-base35 Version: 20170801.1-3 Severity: important Control: close -1 20200910-1 Tags: sid bullseye User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org Usertags: out-of-sync Control: block -1 by 970878 Control: affects 970878 src:fonts-urw-base35 X-Debbugs-CC: ghostscript@packages.debian.org Dear maintainer(s), As recently announced [1], the Release Team now considers packages that are out-of-sync between testing and unstable for more than 60 days as having a Release Critical bug in testing. Your package src:fonts-urw-base35 in its current version in unstable has been trying to migrate for 62 days [2]. Hence, I am filing this bug. Because I know that your package can't migrate due to ghostscript (which is a key package) not migrating, I filled this bug as important instead of the normal severity serious. Please coordinate with the ghostscript maintainer to fix the situation. We may raise the severity of this bug to serious later. If a package is out of sync between unstable and testing for a longer period, this usually means that bugs in the package in testing cannot be fixed via unstable. Additionally, blocked packages can have impact on other packages, which makes preparing for the release more difficult. Finally, it often exposes issues with the package and/or its (reverse-)dependencies. We expect maintainers to fix issues that hamper the migration of their package in a timely manner. I have immediately closed this bug with the version in unstable, so if that version or a later version migrates, this bug will no longer affect testing. I have also tagged this bug to only affect sid and bullseye, so it doesn't affect (old-)stable.
