The perl build failures are the real issue here. I have no expectation that both build failures are going to be resolved in the next six days without any need for a new upload. I've unfrozen pango1.0, at any rate; pango and jigdo can both enter testing once they've aged and all builds are available. I don't think that the gcc-defaults change is urgent enough that it warrants shorting the testing period for these two packages. The compiler update is a change that it would be good to have make it into testing soon, though, so I hope there won't be any need for further pango or jigdo uploads in the next week. > Unfortunately, libgnome2-wnck-perl is waiting for perl, and libwnck won't > be able to go in until libgnome2-wnck-perl can. > Unless libgnome2-wnck-perl is just removed from testing for now, > which might be the right thing to do; its only rdepends is perlpanel, > which has no rdepends. Yeah, I had just talked to the libgnome2-wnck-perl maintainer on IRC, and he requested exactly this. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
