Hi Russell Neither refpolicy nor policycoreutils are in the list of key packages. In the upcoming hard freeze, for non-key packages with (non-trivial) autopkgtests, the rules of the soft freeze still apply [1]. So you could avoid the need for unblocks for these packages by adding an autopkgtest that tests the as-installed packages in a new upload.
