Hi,
in https://github.com/anbe42/piuparts/commit/283dac3ae7e31fee51efb836468cd8ca5b61584f
(not yet merged into the main piuparts repo) Andreas proposes to file bugs
regarding failing to purge with severity 'serious" because "old bugs are
filed/fixed and any failure due to a regression in sid will block migration
anyway", while we used to treat 'failing to purge' bugs as severity
'important' as in practice those bugs are merely annoying (while being a
clear policy violation).
There's also at least #918312 filed by Adrian Bunk.
The reasoning that these bugs will block migrations anyway sounds sound
- except for new packages though!
So I would like to have the opinion of the release team if you also
think that those bugs should be filed with severity 'serious' nowadays.
(As it was their opinion that this shouldn't be done previously.)
What do you think?

cheers,
Holger
