Hi Mario, The fwupd upload is unaffected by the soft-freeze but is blocked because it has autopkgtest regressions. If you can solve that in a timely fashion (i.e. in time for it to migrate before the full freeze), it should be able to migrate without our involvement. Please use this approach for fwupd. As for libxmlb, please observe the freeze deadlines for future cases. It would have been less work for both parties if you had lead the original libxmlb version migrate and then fixed the port issues after the soft-freeze had started. I have granted an exception for the version currently in sid (among other because it was trivial for me to get and review the diff on respighi); if it migrates on its own from here it will be in buster. However, it is done on the assumption that libxmlb is release ready (i.e. either 0.1.6-2 migrates to testing as it is when the delay is over or it is out). For future case, please file unblock bugs (using reportbug release.debian.org - one for each package) as it is easier for us to track. Thanks, ~Niels
