I am not familiar with how ftpmaster works, but according to the Wiki [1],
the octave3.2 package will be removed automatically from testing, once
pfstools_1.8.5-0.1 (5 days from now) and debian-edu_1.700 (3 days from
now) will migrate into testing. Indeed, the situation in testing right
now is as follows:
$ apt-cache rdepends octave3.2
octave3.2
Reverse Depends:
pfstools
octave-pfstools
octave3.2-htmldoc
octave3.2-headers
octave3.2-emacsen
octave3.2-doc
octave3.2-dbg
octave
octave
education-mathematics
Am I correct? Another question is: do automatic removals also happen
during the freeze?
We must really ensure that octave3.2 does not sneak into wheezy.
