FWIW here's usually what's going on when udeb-producing packages are
blocked:
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2018/06/msg2.html

That's entirely correct. There were no prior notices sent to -boot@ or
-release@ this time because we seem to have enough Secure Boot pieces
ready to get that tested widely. I advocated for putting that into a
release instead of pointing to daily/weekly builds; hence the non ideal
situation on the coordination level.

In the past, I've personally vouched for a couple of packages that were
hold up by D-I preparations; I'm fine with doing that again in case a
reasonable update misses a deadline by a couple of days, due to a
lengthy, general block-udeb (even though those are generally rather
short, less than a week; until we get everything ready on the -boot
and -cd side).

Thanks for your response. I think I will keep this report open for now
and close it after
the package migrates (if everything goes on well).

Hi,

I believe KiBi is working on a d-i release, which is probably what you
are seeing.  Once it is done (expect this before the soft freeze date),
the udebs will likely be unblocked again and it will migrate (assuming
everything else is ok).

Thanks,
~Niels

Dear Release Team and d-i Team,

As previously mentioned in [1], I made a new upload (QA upload) for json-c
library to clean up various issues. There's no change to the source code, only
updates in packaging instruction.

This package is currently blocked due to block-udeb request. I'm wondering if
we could unblock it so that the package may migrate into Testing soon (or at
least before full Buster freeze).

The new upload builds successfully on all architectures (except kfreebsd-*,
which is still under Needs-Build condition). There's no new regression
according to autopkgtest results. Piuparts test is also ok.

Regards,
Boyuan Yang
