I like to point your attention to the libjpeg8 transition. I have no
problem deferring the libjpeg8 transition to squeeze+1, but we should
have a clear plan for this transition before the freeze so at least 
libjpeg62 can be ajusted to make the transition to libjpeg8 less
painful.

I'd like to use this opportunuity to apologize for the trouble I caused with
libjpeg8. I was so afraid that packages would FTBFS with libjpeg8 that I
ignored the other failure mode.
