If the package can't be built from source, it's not releasable. There's no reason to leave unreleasable leaf packages in testing where they obscure our ability to see those bugs which need to be fixed for release because removals are not possible. This is not a new concept. I'm assuming that your upload rights are intact, and the bug in question has a patch available - fixing the RC bug would take less time than posting about it on debian-release... -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
