The Debian-import-related fixes should land within a day or so from now, I expect. There isn't really a backlog to speak of; the first import after the necessary deployments may take a few minutes longer than usual, but that's about it. As for the PPA signing fixes, some of them will land together with the Debian-import-related fixes, but I've been working on other parts (further changes needed to do bulk re-signing) today and those are still under review. > > * Having upgraded debmirror, we now find that it's doing slightly > > stricter signature checking, so it fails because our > > debian-archive-keyring package is old enough that it only has one of > > the keys used to sign current Debian suites.

I wouldn't put too much stock in that estimate; it should be done well before then. -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- ubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
