Ugh, what a mess.

The two RC bugs you mention are merged, so closing one will by definition close the other. However, they appear to refer to different issues, so I'm not sure why they're merged in the first place.

If #642209 and #691340 are the same bug, they should *be* the same bug (i.e. merged). As it is, the earlier bug will still be marked as outstanding in testing after the above upload, whereas the newer RC bug is still marked as applying to unstable, which it logically cannot. #628919 claims to be fixed in testing already, due to the unversioned -done.

Please feel free to go ahead with the upload, and file an unblock bug afterwards. The state of the bugs against chrony will need fixing up, however, as above.

Regards,

Adam
