I apologize for upsetting you. Before I filed this particular bug, I checked that source gpsd is on the Key Packages list. It will NOT be auto-removed. https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/key_packages.yaml.cgi It is a "serious" issue in my opinion, just not "urgent" for gpsd-clients. > I'd suggest that you downgrade all the bugs you've filed, wait for a > month or two, and then rise the severity again. There is a lot of really old, unmaintained stuff in Debian that hardly anyone cares about. They might not even be noticed until the package has been removed from testing for a while. I don't think for those packages that it makes sense to keep those packages in Testing for several more months of our release cycle. Feel free to lower the severity at this time for these bugs for packages that you care about. I intend to file the rest of the pygtk rdepends bugs soon, many at "serious" but some I will file as "important". https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=pkg-gnome-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org;tag=pygtk Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
