Hi,

A quick release update (compared to last week)[1][2].


The executive summary: "We are not fixing RC bugs fast enough to keep
the RT busy - please fix RC bugs faster. Thanks!"


The long version:

 * 2 out of 3 known blockers (puppet and libc-bin) got fixed in unstable

   - puppet is unblocked

   - libc-bin has a fix, but it introduces a (minor) build regression
     under "stage2" builds (#780431).

 * The last known blocker (libjpeg-turbo-progs migration) had a fix but
   it proved insufficient.  The maintainer and RT is looking into a
   more reliable solution.

 * About *25% of all Jessie RC bugs are unblocked by the release team*!

   - 28.9% if you include items unblocked but needing a d-i ack.

   - I will be aging a part of these.  Over the weekend, you may see a
     rapid decline in the RC bugs affecting Jessie.

 * Ignoring 2 packages, there are *no more RC bug fixes pending RT*
   unblocks[3].  If you want to release sooner, please fix more RC
   bugs at a higher rate! :)

   - The two packages are glibc (see above) and cgmanager, where we are
     in touch with the maintainer about getting a t-p-u upload.

   - There are some unblock requests left in our qeueue, which are not
     (or no longer?) involving RC bugs.

 * We can do with more upgrade tests and upgrade reports! Don't be shy
   to file one just because it says: Debian upgrades "just work(tm)"!


Attached is a dd-list of packages with RC bugs affecting *both unstable
and Jessie*.

 * If your name/team is on the list, please fix your (team's) package(s)

   - If you don't know how to fix it/need more info and/or cannot
     reproduce it, then tag it "help", "moreinfo" and/or
     "unreproducible".

   - If you do not think it is RC in general for your package, then
     downgrade it

   - If you think it is RC for stretch, but not a problem for Jessie,
     then request a "jessie-ignore" tag.  NB: We are still willing to
     accept bug fixes for "jessie-ignore'd" problems.

 * If you see a friend's package on the list, please consider helping
   them out.

 * Otherwise, go help the grub2 maintainers, they can still use some
   help triaging bugs!

When you are done with that, please consider reviewing the release notes
or picking a random RC buggy package to NMU.

Thanks,
~Niels
