We don't need that list anymore, because we just install all changes-files (except out-of-date on an arch, and with the footnote of libcrypt-cbc-perl which went into proposed-updates prior to the new way). > (b) packages that should be removed, I would consider to store them in comments as DELETE.$package - first line the reason, second to last line "remove package version arche[s]". Reason for putting them in there is that we want to put them into the update announcement. > (c) other actions that need to be done (like e.g. "move the > debian-installer", "run cruft-checker"), We could put them either into COMMENTS as well, or somewhere else - it might be good to have them as part of COMMENTS to have that easier included in the update preparation mail. Perhaps as manual.$package and just one line reason, rest description what needs to be done. > for the announcement > (d) a list of non-DSA-changes with reason, > (e) a list of DSA-changes with reason, Should be extracted from the COMMENTS/ACCEPTED.* - if second line begins with "DSA-[0-9]+", the reason is taken from DSA, otherwise, the reason is the second line verbatim. More lines are considered as comments. Ok? > (f) a list of removals with reason, Taken from the same file as (b) > (g) misc issues that should be noteworthy We should make that a free-text section I think.
