Can the severity descriptions or policy be updated to reflect this
then? Serious is currently listed as
"a severe violation of Debian policy" or "in the package maintainer's
opinion...unsuitable for release." on
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities; nothing I could find
in a quick perusal of the linked policy at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ appeared to address this sort
of situation. As currently written (excluding anything relevant I
missed in the policy) I don't see how anything other than "minor" or
"wishlist" can apply.
