Bug#845562: tracker.debian.org: Action needed item "new upstream version" should not be high priority



Package: tracker.debian.org
Severity: minor

Dear maintainers,

When a new upstream version of a package is available, the package
tracker displays a high priority action needed item to package the new
upstream release.  However, we normally don't consider new upstream
releases high priority: they are wishlist-severity bugs.  In particular,
it is certainly significantly more important to fix RC bugs than upload
new upstream versions (unless of course the new upstream version fixes
the RC bug).  So I think the displayed priority of the action needed
item should be lowered.
