Hi, There's quite a few problems in your diff file. The next 3 points would be what I believe the release team would answer, the last point is specific to the Openstack packaging team. * Could you please send again the debdiff, but *WITHOUT* your *~ backup files? Probably you should have carefully read it before replying like this to the release team who is already overloaded with Debian tasks. That's the kind of joke they don't really like... * I don't think there's the need to use testing-proposed-updates. Uploading to SID will be just fine, as anyway, we haven't uploaded anything newer in SID which would pose a problem, and that we use Experimental for Folsom. (in other words: nothing prevents uploading to SID, and when we upload there it's in the hope it migrates to testing) * There is already a version -6 in SID. So you should really upload 2012.1-7, not 2012.1-5wheezy1, which is the scheme for security uploads in Debian Stable. * Our Git already contains entries for -6 and -7. Please use that, modifying the candidate version -7, and do not get out of sync with our Git please, otherwise it's going to be a nightmare! Also, this issue has been pending for 6 months! I do appreciate that you finally decide to work on it, even that late. But I continue to refuse to take the responsibility for it. The main mistake, IMO, was to leave the issue as-is, doing nothing to fix it. So you and Loic should really take the responsibility for the upload, and make sure it's in a correct shape *in time* for the release. I surely would feel bad if Quantum had to be removed from Wheezy. Please don't leave this pending again. Cheers, Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
