Hi Paul, hi Dirk,
Dirk, the list at the end includes your architecture-dependent packages that
directly or transitively depend, recommend or suggest r-cran-utf8. Can
you architecture-restrict them?

I will not interfere with these bugs anymore.

I am sorry for my mistake: I forgot that fixed and notfound are not the same.
Please let me know if you want me to cancel my changes by using "notfix" on the
bugs or if you want to do it yourself.

No, sorry I have not ignored what you wrote.
- You explained me what kind of removal bugs would be needed (thank you).
- I replied that I will group them by batches covering some large branches
of the r-cran-* dependency network, because I expect that hundreds
of individuals removal bugs are not welcome. I added that I expect
that I only can do so when all the packages in the same bulk removal
are architecture-restrited. I asked for advice on debian-devel about
bulk removal bugs.
- Nobody contradicted my understanding that 1) I can not ask for removal
of a package without asking for removal of its dependencies and 2)
removing binaries of non-arch-restricted packages is pointless because
builds-will reupload the binaries and 3) filing hundredss of separated
bugs will not be welcome.
- I announced (maybe not in this thread, but on this list), that I made a
first pilot test (#1128383). That bug was closed this week by the Archive
Operation team.
- In the meantime I completed dependency tree parsing and automation
of architecture restriction, which I have applied to r-cran-utf8.
I uploaded more than 400 packages to DELAYED/2 this week. Every single
one of them after checking that they pass their autopkgtests, by the way.
As of today according to debs.debian.org/debian, the r-{cran,bioc}-* packages
depending, recommending or autopkgtest-depending on r-cran-utf8, directly or
transitively, and which are not yet arch-restricted, are in the table at the
end of this email.
BUT: you can check by yourself, most of them are already in the DELAYED queue.
You asked me to stop upload and fill bugs now, but I would like to carry on
with finishing uploads and filling one bug next week, proposing the following
dak rm command:
dak rm -R -p -C package -m "ROM; remove 32 bit and non-little-endian
architectures" -b -a armhf,i386,s390x r-cran-utf8
Then I will go forward with more removal bugs, especially to allow rcpp and its
dependencies to migrate to Testing.
If that is not acceptable with you, please let me know with precise instructions
on what removal bug(s) I must fill and what was wrong in my reasonning.
