I've a FTBFS for gmetadom on hppa. It's probably an autotools related issue I'm investigating with upstream, we probably found the problem, but I'm waiting for a suitable chroot on paer (I've sent a mail to debian-hppa, still no answer) to debug the problem.
Once I've solved the problem should I upload with urgency=high? Is it permitted or is just an abuse to make packages enter testing quickly?
