Only that the correlation is with architectures, not with packages; there are specific architectures that are holding up the approval of arch: any packages through t-p-u right now. Given that testing-security is an earlier milestone on the release timeline than is the use of t-p-u for all fixes, and that is also still a blocker, I don't really expect this situation to change in the immediate future. Pulling packages in from unstable is a better option where feasible. > aptitude | 0.2.15.6-0.sarge5 | testing-proposed-updates | source, arm, > hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc > Missing alpha and mips builds, this version of aptitude fixs > installation of standard packages on new installs, and fixes > a bug that made tasks not work at all in some locales (#264716). > It's a blocking item for the next d-i release. > This was uploaded a full month ago. > IMHO, if we can't get a build in t-p-u, it would be better to > copy 0.2.15.6-1 from unstable, which is built on all arches already. > The changes between 0.2.15.6-0.sarge5 and 0.2.15.6-1 are fairly > small and have not broken anything over the past 5 weeks since > it was released. Actually, the diff between testing and t-p-u for aptitude is large enough that I'm not really willing to approve it via t-p-u anyway. The package in unstable, having been hammered on a bit, is ok assuming the maintainer agrees that this version is suitable for sarge. The diff seems to indicate that the translations aren't as up-to-date in sid as they are in sarge, though.
