 Yeah, you are British. :) But you mean plural packages? I knew only
python-django. I meant sure, it's a FTBFS in experimental where people
expect failures and maintainers follow it more closely. Doesn't upload the
package to Sid before all issues are solved.
What are the surroundings? Do you need a clean compile soon because you are
testing some important bugfix / alternative compilation method, an upstream
release which adds a long awaited feature (users are expecting that soon),
etc?
It's a beta of Django and even a RC release might be far away. I've doubts
SQLite3 upstream will do a minor updated release. I think the new SQLite3
stable upstream release can be a month away. Should I upload a Fossil
snapshot of that to experimental immediately?
In short, I don't get the importance of filing a FTBFS bug for a beta
release in experimental.

Laszlo/GCS
