That may not qualify for fixing in the freeze, but vera seems to be the

Setting up vera (1.17-5) ...
Ignoring install-info called from maintainer script
The package vera should be rebuilt with new debhelper to get trigger support
during installation. Also it may be useful to not ship obsolete
maintainer information in wheezy.

It would have been nice with a binary debdiff for the ${misc:Depends}.
FTR, it expanded to the usual "dpkg (>= 1.15.4ish) | install-info" for
vera (and "" for dict-vera).

I have decided to unblock it only to get rid of that warning, because it
is allegedly the last of them out there. Though I am not sure we will
bother with the rest for Wheezy if it turns out that "vera" was not the
last package missing this.

To my knowledge, our entire infrastructure uses sid (or occasionally
experimental) rather than stable. So its usefulness is limited only to
people (outside Debian?) on stable relying on that information.

Anyway, unblocked (as mentioned) and thanks for getting rid of
(hopefully) the last install-info warning. :)
