It's a hole in my wording, which I apologize for. I'm not sure that we specifically discussed this case. I had been assuming that the gnome metapackage would pose the same issue, but I don't think I ever said that explicitly. I agree with Julien that there's no reason for the release-team to hold off on unblocking the current package, since it doesn't make matters any worse. But I also agree with Ian that I don't think this is what we intended and we probably need to talk about it again. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
