Hi,

We are considering removing the following packages from testing as
they have unfixed RC bugs filed against them. The packages can be
found in the attached dd-list.  The bugs that put them on this list
can be found in the removals file (also attached) just above the
package name.  We have BCC'ed this email to <pkg>@packages.debian.org
for the relevant packages.

The packages have been selected based on the following criteria:
 * The package had at least one RC bug without activity for the past
   14 days.
 * If a bug is assigned to multiple packages, both packages will be
   affected.
 * The RC bug affects both unstable and testing.
 * The affected package does not have any reverse dependencies in
   testing.

If the relevant RC bugs in the affected packages are not dealt with
/before/ Saturday the 08th of Dec.[1], the packages will be removed
from testing.  Note that "dealt with" may also include downgrading a
severity-inflated bug or fixing affected versions in the BTS.

Please remember to file unblock bugs for packages fixed via uploads to
unstable (and tpu bugs for requests to fix the package via a tpu
upload).

Should you need a bit more time than given, please do not hesitate to
contact us.  It is also easier for us if we can avoid having to
reintroduce a removed package.

We will check the DELAYED queues before activing the removal hints, so
NMUs in the DELAYED queues will be given a chance to reach unstable.

Thanks,
Niels (on behalf of the Release Team)

The bugs were found using the tools from:
  svn://svn.debian.org/svn/collab-qa/rc-buggy-leaf-packages


http://release.debian.org/wheezy/freeze_policy.html


[1] We intend to do the removal with the 10:00 UTC run of Britney of
that day.
