OK. once we know if those fail to build, and if so, once they are fixed or at
least fixes are available (especially for eiskaltdcpp which is in testing) then
we should be able to proceed.

After miniupnpc hits unstable, the bugs become RC as the packages fail to build,
and IMHO direct uploads to DELAYED/2 would be fine.
