Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Hi,
#700398 is a FTBFS (one failing test) of my ocl-icd package in
unstable.
Due to the freeze, ocl-icd is the same in unstable and testing (1.3-3)
So, technically speaking, ocl-icd 1.3-3 in wheezy has a grave bug
and should be fixed or removed.
However:
- the FTBFS is due to opencl-headers in unstable (1.2-2012.11.30-2)
that have more functions than in wheezy (1.2-2012.04.18a-1)
- ocl-icd correctly fixes its failing test in 2.0.2 (just uploaded to
experimental) but this new upstream version has too many changes
(lots of code refactorization since 1.3) to be accpeted in wheezy
- ocl-icd does not FTBFS in a plain wheezy environment
The last point make me think that it would be better to tag this bug
wheezy-ignore. Do you agree?
The other possibilities I see are to downgrade the severity or fix the
ocl-icd package in unstable by desactivating the failing test.
Regards,
Vincent

No. :-) (See below.)

The possibility you missed is making use of the BTS's distribution
tags. With the bug tagged "sid", it no longer appears on the list of RC
bugs affecting testing, as exported by the BTS for britney's purposes
and displayed at
<URL:http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/other/testing.html>
