I think it all depends on much effort we[*] are willing to make. At this point in the life of bookworm (which is 2/3 of its supported period), there are already at least 60 different ftbfs bugs, so I would say that fixing the FTBFS problem alone (disabling the offending tests, if that's your plan and you know how to do it) would be more than acceptable and a lot better than nothing. [*] I say "we" because I'm also a team member, but I certainly can't fix all the issues and I definitely appreciate any kind of QA work that others might offer (like fixing ftbfs bugs in bookworm). Thanks.
