So can you tell, if there’s a chance for hgettext, before we prepare a proper release for unstable and file a bug or is it clear that hgettext won’t make it? As stated in the freeze policy, targeted fixes for RC bugs are still accepted for jessie. So if you have a targeted fix, you can upload it to unstable and file an unblock request (using reportbug). In that case, there is no need to remove haskell-hgettext from jessie, which is probably the preferred way forward for you. Thanks for clarifying.

Is there still hope for hgettext?
Greetings, We (the haskell-team) recently fixed an RC-bug[1] in haskell-hgettext. We uploaded the fix to experimental and were wondering if there’s still a chance to get it into jessie, though we don’t think it’s very important to get it into jessie. So can you tell, if there’s a chance for hgettext, before we prepare a proper release for unstable and file a bug or is it clear that hgettext won’t make it?
