Change in Lintian behavior: more granular exit code statuses
Hello, A change that I have been working on with Felix Lechner[1] has now been merged into the master branch of Lintian and should be landing within the next several weeks. We expect this change to land in Bullseye. This change adds the --fail-on option to Lintian[2], and drastically changes exit code handling. Now Lintian will exit 1 on internal errors and there is *no default behavior* to exit 2. Specifying the --fail-on option allows the user to specify under which conditions Lintian should exit 2. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Bug#914853: ITA: yaml-cpp
Package: wnpp X-Debbugs-CC: debian-devel@lists.debian.org ti...@debian.org This is being filed to publicly state what I have discussed in private with Andreas Tille (and what he recently publicly stated[1]), that I plan on adopting this package. I understand that a recent upload has triggered a transition, and I plan on helping finish that before proceeding with a 0.6.2 upload. Thanks.

Re: autopkgtest results influencing migration from unstable to testing
Hello, Thanks for the work on this; it will make things on (at minimum) the Ubuntu side of things much, much better and will hopefully ensure higher quality Debian packages.

What is the reasoning for not making these blocking sooner? In my honest opinion, passing autopkgtests should be a release migration requirement, and not just with my Ubuntu hat on (because it has a correlation to higher quality packages).

Re: APT 1.2 preview uploaded to experimental -- please test
I have been testing APT 1.2 under the ppa:deity/sid PPA in Ubuntu Xenial. It seems to be working very well, and I am really liking the various improvements. Thanks for all the hard work!
