You're more than welcome to dive deep into this issue. Patches are always welcome. Claiming this is RC is a bit over the top though. If you're only out to ride the policy train without actually wanting to debug it yourself then I'll be forced to simply disable the testsuite. In my opinion the testsuite exists to raise the quality of what we produce and to *save* us time. If it becomes to time-consuming to maintain I'll do without it. Disabling failing tests-suites is something I know from personal experience that several release team members have a strong opinion against. Disabling it for a extremely rare occational failure is something I imagine they would be even more opposed to. If you're strongly attached to (cluttering up my maintainer view and) tracking every issue in the debian bug tracking system (I'd instead recommend you use the upstream bug tracker), then I'd welcome a bug report with severity minor. Minor is in my opinion the correct severity for such an issue. Regards, Andreas Henriksson
