Thank you, pushed both branches. Release Team, we are aware that you requested an explicit review from D-I for this and #1025708, however there are no available reviewers, so it appears we are deadlocked. Would you please consider waiving this requirement to break the deadlock? Philip Hands has confirmed on Salsa that the change has been tested with OpenQA and everything still works: https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debootstrap/-/merge_requests/105#note_429838 Thanks!
