Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: [email protected] Usertags: unblock
Hi, a few days ago I uploaded new versions of valgrind to unstable. The main reason was fixing the #762386 bug (essentially, the valgrind:amd64 package had a spurious Depends on libc6-i386 which wasn't needed), but I also took advantage of the situation and added some clarifications to the README.Debian file. The original bug report was severity: normal, but since it caused the installation of the libc6-i386 on amd64 systems indiscriminately with no reason at all, and since it doesn't affect the actual functionality (the package is not actually needed), I think it should be in jessie as well. I stupidly uploaded the first new version before asking for pre-approval, however I don't expect to do any more uploads for valgrind in the foreseeable future, so even if the unblock gets rejected the uploads shouldn't cause any problem.
