It would have made little sense to “update” from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2. > How do you plan to clean up this mess, in particular considering that > freeze is immiment? Exactly as is currently going on: fixing the one remaining bug. Throwing tantrums and opening spurious Severity: serious bugs is only making a larger mess. Moving to fido2 0.9 and ykman 4.0a1 was a deliberate move: I discussed with upstream and they moved up their release schedule in order to accomodate the Debian bullseye release. I did so because this lets me get rid of all C dependencies, including a few which have had recurring issues (both packaging and security). > Uploading an alpha version close before freeze deadline wasn't the best > idea I have to say. > > I would suggest reuploading 3.1.2 as 4.0.0~a1+really3.1.2-1 or something > similar. I'm aware the timing isn't ideal, but it's the best that could be done. I would suggest being a little more patient and letting maintainers actually maintain. nicoo
