Bug#525593: Processing of belpic_2.6.0-6.1_amd64.changes

2009-07-19 Thread Wouter Verhelst
Please don't do random NMU's without getting approval from the
maintainer.

Belpic has serious issues in that some builds work, while others don't,
depending on the state of the build-deps; the only way to defend against
this is by extensive testing, which you _cannot_ have done since you
don't have a Belgian eID card.

Also, I'm currently working on packaging an upstream code update, which
I hope to have done by the end of DebConf9. If this build causes
problems, then that works directly against that goal.

If DebConf9 is over and the belpic upstream update isn't ready for
upload, I'll do an update of the current codebase myself. For now, I
have cancelled your upload. Please don't touch it without my explicit
approval.

That's why it's in DELAYED and can be cancelled.

Thanks for letting people now by replying to the RC bug that got
reported.

Fine.

The procedure, last I checked, was still 'use DELAYED/7 or ask for
explicit approval'.

Sorry, I thought I had done that before; apparently I haven't. There are
other bugs mentioning the new upstream version, however.

5.11.1 says DELAYED/2 for RC bugfixes. I'm sorry I missed 1 day after
months of RC-bugginess.

#536710? Doesn't say anything about the huge issues you mentioned. I
don't see much more bugs that would be related?
