The severity and the no-dsa/dsa decision can be orthogonal in the following sense: Assume an issue is not severe enought to have an immediate DSA, but a point release is approaching, still the issue should be made sure to be fixed in the upper suite (considering it release critical) so we would not start latest trixie with the open issue. Having it at RC level ensures this, gives enough grace time (there won't be an imminent removal anyway) and raises the hint-flag. I choose such in particular when I see there is the same version across several releases, and a new upstream version exists to really make sure we avoid having the issue in the upper suite. Does this make sense? Or have you issues with the assessment as 'grave' in this case? Regards, Salvatore
