So at this point, the udebs we have in the prospective d-i rc2 initrds that we know we want to get fixes in yet for the .debs are atk1.0, gnupg, and udev. The gnupg bug is a security bug, so an alternate update path is available; atk1.0 /might/ be ignorable on the grounds that the scope of the bug is limited to users of screenreaders using a translation in indeterminate circumstances; but the udev problem seems to be fairly widespread in the hardware it would potentially affect, which I think tips the balance in favor of stashing those udebs somewhere for the release and allowing the updates into testing. AJ, can the ftp team make libatk1.0-udeb 1.12.4-2, udev-udeb 0.105-3, and gpgv-udeb 1.4.6-1, with sources, persistently available in a separate suite to allow updates to go into testing? It would be ideal if we had this in place by the 20th, so that at least anyone installing from netboot/netinst/businesscard can get the updated atk1.0 so we have more opportunity for feedback on anything that's gone wrong.
