Package: live-build
Version: 3.0~a51-1
Severity: grave

There are serious problems with live-build in wheezy. For example, the
"rescue" package list is completely broken (#694823) and there are some
problems with grub (#696578).

In both bug reports, users are being targeted to the latest 3.x
versions, which arguably fixes those issues. Unfortunately, the 3.x
manual states "live-build always defaults to the stable release". Now of
course wheezy is not stable yet, but we're in a freeze so that's exactly
what we're wanting to do now, make wheezy stable! :)

So we should get 3.0 beta releases down into wheezy. This will probably
require an unfreeze request with the release team, but I wanted to
double-check this is proper before going ahead and filing a (rather
controversial, considering the diff) bug with release.debian.org.

Thanks for the feedback!

which is why you should use the version in sid while we're working on finishing it up and getting it to migrate at some point.
