Did I?   Some serious bugs are not RC if it pass rc_policy.txt

Yes, I know.  That is why I even noted this URL.  If you feel this to
stay in this way, ask RM for wheezy-ignore tag while keeping serious.
That was my expectation.

Now I know tech-ctte activity via you.  I will hold out for a moment on
this.

As for interpretation of | in "depends:/suggests:", I understand it
certainly has space for discussion.  I picked this set of packages as a
test case to hear responses by the other maintainers before knowing
tech-ctte activity.  I did not ask tech-ctte for review but #686481 may
give you some idea behind my activity and timely tech-ctte activity.

There are only 16 packages having non-free/contrib as alternative using
| in "depends:/suggests:".  (2 non-RC serious bug packages without | in
"depends:/suggests:" have been NMUed by others recently when I reminded
them about the situation.)

Regards,

Osamu
