While in good faith, I am not sure what you are implying with the above: In an ideal World (where crystal balls or time machines exist), yes. Both filing this bugreport and the upstream statement triggering it occured _after_ the release of Buster, indicating lack of knowledge on the matter at the time of release of Buster (or, in bad faith, that it was known but kept secret - sure you cannot mean that). > As such it might be a good option to ask for removal of src:janus in > buster. If you agree on that, can you fill a bug for the > release-team/SRM to ask for removal of the package in the next buster > point release? Yes, removal from Buster should be done. Sorry, I am not familiar with the procedures to do that, and appreciate your suggestion: Do I simply file a bugreport against ftp.debian.org as with removals from unstable/experimental, or which different runes should I throw?
