[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#667863: release.debian.org: Raising severity of bugs blocking the octave transition?
Package: release.debian.org
Followup-For: Bug #667863
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition
The octave transition is well under way, but it is still blocked by a few
packages which have not yet adapted to the new octave packaging scheme. The
goal of the Debian Octave Group is to remove the old octave3.2* packages before
the Wheezy release. Currently this removal is blocked by the 5 bugs listed as
blockers of the present bug. These bugs were submitted about one month ago,
they are currently of severity important, and we provided a patch for all of
them.
Our question is the following: does the Release Team think it is appropriate to
raise the severity of these bugs to serious, in order to ensure that the
octave3.2* removal will happen before the Wheezy release?
Thanks,
