Freeze exception for gridengine?

[Wouter Verhelst <wouter@grep.be>]

Hi,

I see on https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gridengine the following:

Issues preventing migration:
∙ blocked by freeze: is not in testing

The issue here was fallout after the Rules-Requires-Root change in
unstable. I had uploaded a fix for that on the 7th of April, fixed by
Adrian Bunk on the 11th, but it did not reach testing in time.

Unfortunately, due to me being more busy than I'd have liked, this was
just a bit too late to get back into testing in time for the freeze.

The gridengine package is a popular batch queueing system to schedule
jobs on a cluster of nodes; it is used at least by the debconf video
team and FOSDEM as a dependency of SReview, and it would be quite
involved if I'd have to switch to something else...

Is there still a possibility for a freeze exception?

Thanks,

I will have a Tin-Actinium-Potassium mixture, thanks.
