I would like to officially ask for an exception to the usual testing rules for lilypond, to allow 2.8.7 into testing, on those architectures where guile-1.8 works. The architectures currently losing for guile-1.8 are alpha, amd64, and ia64. I believe that alpha and ia64 are release candidates, as well, which means that the relevant guile-1.8 bugs *are* release critical, though they were marked "important". This is an inconsistency. If no exceptions are made for guile-1.8 and lilypond, then we will be stuck with lilypond 2.6 in etch and no guile-1.8 at all. My previous message assumed that the failing arches were all not release candidates, but according to the web[1], which we all know never lies, that's not so. 1: http://release.debian.org/etch_arch_qualify.html Thomas
