Still, it's an excellent list. An, I think, an excellent basis for
filing RC bugs against all uninstallable packages. Why didn't we do
this at the start of the freeze?
Am I alone in thinking that uninstallable pkgs should be yanked from
potato (at least for their arch) or else fixed?
And that RC bugs should be filed?
