Yes, we probably can but I would like to understand, please, why coreutils 8.30 (which, according to Andreas Beckmann, builds cleanly in stretch) cannot find its way into stretch-bpo. Also, as a side note, would someone please explain why someone still on stretch would need lintian? I am personally on stable, but most package maintainers out there seem to track testing or the bleeding edge, unstable. Kind regards, Felix Lechner
