Re: how long a package must be in unstable without critical bugs to be copied to testing?

But not always the same version ... 4.8.1-2 was uploaded just 6 days
ago. In extreme, you can upload with normal (low) priority every 9
days, and never get your package into testing, because a version is
only moved after 10 days.

This does not seem the problem for interchange at the moment, though.
<URL:http://ftp-master.debian.org/testing/update_excuses.html> lists
it as

    * valid candidate (will be installed unless it's dependent upon
      other buggy pkgs)

Hmm, at least for libapache-mod-interchange, the explanation is that
apache and all those modules already in testing must be upgraded at
the same time ... and if some of these is not recompiled for the
newest apache yet, we have a problem.

I think this prevents the installation of all other binary packages
built from interchange as well.
