Yes I did so because the issue is not in src:linux. This would not prevent in fact src:linux to migrate (which is a pity in itself since we really want 7.1.4 to go to testing). But I talked to the release team and they added a block hint so linux won't migrate until the block lifted. Can you please respond here once binutils is fixed? Regards, Salvatore
