Nevertheless, this is a problem that it's your responsibility as maintainer to resolve if you want the package included in the release. If you believe the package should be included in etch without the hppa binary, you need to ask the ftpmasters to remove the old hppa binary from unstable. > Illuminator is bug-free and lintian clean.

The time for this issue to have been resolved was three months ago, before the targetted release date, not one week ago (or tomorrow, given that hppa is still not sorted). illuminator at this point has been gone from testing for over a year; I'm not likely to take time away from working on release blockers to consider such an update. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
