In fact, those 'RFS bugs’ were filed at the very beginning when I was fixing FTBFS bugs for arm64. The wrong version numbers (“+cfg”) were added by following the debian-ports' 'Upload Policy’ (http://www.ports.debian.org/archive). The ‘unreleased’ archive is a temporary archive to help debian arm64 ports (http://ftp.debian-ports.org/debian/dists/unreleased/). I uploaded those packages to mentors.debian.net so that Wookey could get them, check their qualities and finally do the upload (to ‘unreleased’ of debian-ports), since I don’t have right to do so. I filed the RFS bugs by trying to follow a more formal way to let Wookey know that the packages were uploaded and where they locates. However, it turns out that ‘debian ports upload policy’ is slightly different, and I realised that those RFS reports are actually not suitable for our current porting work (In fact, I also realised that ‘RFS’ should be made when someone cannot find a sponsor and I’ve already got one). Yes, I think I need to cancel all my ‘RFS’ to avoid further misunderstanding on them. Thanks again for kindly reminding.
