Migration was already stalled by cinnamon-settings-daemon being unbuildable on s390x (#977762) which has now been resolved. If you need cinnamon to migrate sooner, you could wait a couple of days for CI to run, then ask the release team to "age" the cinnamon package - they are able to tell the migration machinery to behave as though it had been uploaded with high urgency, even though it wasn't. Given how trivial the change in cinnamon/4.8.3-3 was, they would probably be willing to do so. Or, if you need certain components to be upgraded in lockstep, please use versioned Breaks to make sure they can't go into testing independently (the GNOME team often has to do this, and I'm sure Cinnamon is in a similar situation). smcv
