Usually I'd expect that wording to mean an upload to buster-backports, rather than p-u, particularly when the difference between the two versions is not small. > [✓] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog > [✓] I reviewed all changes and I approve them > [o] attach debdiff against the package in testing > (debdiff against package in stable is large) > Unfortunately, for a stable update, the debdiff against stable is the one that's relevant. The diff against a different version of the package tells us very little about the impact on stable. In this case, the diff against stable is: 234 files changed, 12222 insertions(+), 7584 deletions(-) This really feels like a candidate for a backports update, rather than a stable update. https://backports.debian.org/Contribute/ has more information, if you're not familiar with the process.
