FW: python 2.6 migrated to testing
in [Debian]

Prev: Misleading Debian's installer choice
Next: Debian Install stalls at 5% (at least for 3 hours, don't know if it suffices to designate this state as `stall')

There's a price we have to pay for this fast transition: A few packages are uninstallable on one or another architecture because we couldn't get them to build fast enough. Also, first packages start to depend on other new packages (i.e. atlas), so they couldn't migrate. A few non-free packages had to be removed because they are not binNMUable by our current infrastructure; of course as always we're happy to help them to migrate again to testing once they're fixed. In other words, we'll start binNMUs in testing soon to get rid of some cases. We decided to do it so fast to avoid this migration becoming one with some otherwise already started. This also means that as of now, we need a few days to sort remaining issues out, and to finish the final bits of python. As next weekend there won't be testing migrations due to ftp-master move, don't expect too much great news prior to that. A normal release update will be sent out as usual when it's ready.

I don't recall if cdn.debian.net was ever announced on non-devel lists (snapshots.debian.org was), but anyway, subscribing to debian-announce and debian-news is a good ideea. They are both low traffic. Regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic |
