Mattia, it's seldom a good idea to mix topics and especially in this case with
the release team getting ~50 bugs a day it doesn't help them at all.
About the libeatmydata/82-3 unblock request:
libeatmydata (82-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/patches/bug-702711.patch:
+ [c95e942] fix the bug #702711 also for 32 bit arches (Closes: #765738).
+ [0167220] update headers.
* [3fabf6f] debian/control: build-depend on strace only on non hurd and non
kfreebsd systems, where it is unavailable.
#702711 breaks eatmydata completly on i386 (which is noticable in Debian Edu),
so I disagree with the severity of #702711 which is currently important, like
#765738 was at well. I think both bugs are serious and must be fixed for
jessie.
So, dear release team, could you please unblock libeatmydata? The debdiff
looks good to me...!

I'd suggest coming back to 82-4 once 82-3 is in jessie _and_ filing bugs about
the issues you want to fix in 82-4 _first_.
cheers,
Holger
