Draft for taging 32 RC bugs with can-defer, will-remove or is-blocker
Hi,
I have a quick review of the RC bugs in *key* packages that are unfixed
in unstable according to UDD. The following is a list of 32 of these
(out of about 180) with proposed verdicts/tagging to start a debate
about them.
There are 3 verdicts:
* can-defer (serious bug, but not a blocker - could be fixed in via pu
or a security upload)
- This implies a "stretch-ignore".
* will-remove (the *key* package will be removed unless the bug is
fixed)
* is-blocker (must be fixed for stretch - possibly via reverting)
Full-disclosure:
* all verdicts are based on the title of the bug and I am very open to
discussion about these
* the list is based on UDD's view[1]
* if your favourite bug is not listed here, please feel free to bring
it up (or wait for the next round of these lists) :)
The list:
