If you do not believe so, please set the severity to what you see fit.

Hi Bastian

In what capacity are you setting the severity of this bug?

As far as I can tell, you are neither a maintainer of this package nor
a member of the release team.

I don't believe having a dead upstream is considered Release Critical.

Bug#1061203: gtkmm2.4: upstream branch is end-of life

[Bastian Germann]

Source: gtkmm2.4
Severity: serious

While gtkmm 3.x and 4.x are still maintained, gtkmm2.4 is abandoned upstream.
It should not be released with trixie, even if the gtk2 removal does not happen.
A popular reverse dependency is ardour, which is in the process of vendoring the
gtkmm2.4 parts that it needs, so ardour should not be considered a blocker.
