There's already a request for that - #683753; please check before filing new ones. > The current version of ns3 in unstable is uploaded before freeze, > while blocked by FTBFS on mipsel and mips due to lack of memory > on these two architectures. > > I have asked ftp-master to deleted it from testing [bug: #682201], and > except it to migrate to testing automatically, but it didn't work. There are two problems with that - a) ftp-master don't remove things from testing (and indeed that bug doesn't actually request that anyway) and b) #673623 was still marked as affecting the version in unstable. Apparently the versions on #673623 were wrong, but by the time that was fixed the automatic freeze exception had expired. We're now six weeks in to the freeze and ns3 hasn't been in testing for about 10 months, so is effectively a new package. I realise the circumstances are unfortunate but at this stage of the freeze we generally wouldn't be looking at adding new packages.
