No new bugs reported in the packages that I NMUd after ~6 weeks, so I
think that everything went all right.  They still show up in my PTS
page, so I'll keep an eye if critical bugs are reported in the near
future.

It still remains the question about if the packages should be orphaned
or not, nobody from Xiph seems active at this time.


Cheers.
