Hi, I don't believe RFP bugs *can*be "serious", according to the fine manual, that is reserved for bugs that are: > is a severe violation of Debian policy (roughly, it violates a "must" > or "required" directive), or, in the package maintainer's or release > manager's opinion, makes the package unsuitable for release. https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities `wnpp`, itself, is not a package that *can* have serious bugs, I feel like. In any case, if you believe this is a serious bug, I think it should be addressed against the qutip package, like it originally was, but, like the maintainer argued here, I don't think it's serious there either, at most it would be `important`, defined as: > a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without > rendering it completely unusable to everyone. I found this while triaging release critical bugs during the Montreal BSP. A. -- Secrecy is the keystone to all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy and censorship. - Robert A. Heinlein
