Hurd and kbsd are likely P-A-S, but not added yet for the rename.
MIPS appears to be in an inconsistent state, but nothing I can fix.
The rest appear to be affected by #559676, which yes I already reported
and was fixed in git a few minutes later :)
I'm not sure why this is happening there though, the packages that weren't
fixed for that should have never gotten out of experimental. I originally
had tighter deps but dropped them for this release because it was fixed in X.
Cheers,
Ron
