I just got the following notice
mysql-workbench 6.2.3+dfsg-6 is marked for autoremoval from testing on 2014-12-01
It (build-)depends on packages with these RC bugs:
765664: mariadb-5.5: Multiple security fixes from October 2014 CPU could affect MariaDB
which makes me worry whether mysql-workbench will be part of Jessie.
Mysql-workbench depends on "virtual-mysql-client" provided by
* mariadb-client-10.0
* mariadb-client-5.5
* mysql-client-5.5
* mysql-client-5.6
* percona-xtradb-cluster-client-5.5
I think it is a bit harsh to remove mysql-workbench from "testing"
(merely) due to problems in one of the alternatives providing client
for MySQL connectivity. Besides client package is probably not even
affected by the security issues...
What can we do to avoid auto-removal of mysql-workbench from Jessie?
Please advise.

It is a fine thing to be honest, but it is also very important to be right.
