Ahhh, yes, your are right. I was a bit in a hurry. What I can do at
least is providing a backport for Stretch.

Seems so and it seems you are right that abyss and metaphlan2 are really
the same issue in this respect.

Hmmmm, I can only repeat what I said: I simply have no idea about the
Ubuntu sync mechanism and the best thing we could do is to invite some
Ubuntu people to our sprint. My knowledge is that they are forking
unstable at some point in time but I neither know when this point in
time is nor why packages are excluded. If someone might be able to find
out that point in time for the fork we could try to check before whether
our packages are in a good shape - but that's all hidden knowledge to
me and I have no spare cycles to care in addition for Ubuntu (but would
love if somebody else take over this job).
Kind regards
Andreas.
