tag 212895 thanks I have attempted to remove the sarge-ignore tag (control is BCCed). Until there is evidence of explicit authorisation from the release manager this appears to be a clear procedural abuse.
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#tags sarge-ignore This release-critical bug is to be ignored for the purposes of releasing sarge. _This tag should only be used by the release manager; do not set it yourself without explicit authorization from him._ <http://people.debian.org/~ajt/sarge_rc_policy.txt> Further to this, certain issues may be exempted from being considered release critical for sarge by the release manager. This is expressed by tagging the report "sarge-ignore"; this should not be done without explicit authorisation from the release manager. Regards, Adam Warner
