Hi all,

I am sponsoring a future maintainer whose package 'movixmaker-2' has
its official priority set to "optional". This package depends on
libconfig-inifiles-perl, of which the priority is "extra".

OTOH, the policy states (section 2.5):
"Packages must not depend on packages with lower priority values
 (excluding build-time dependencies).  In order to ensure this, the
 priorities of one or more packages may need to be adjusted."

Pascal Giard (CC'd in this message) is trying to be compliant with this,
but any upload of the package makes the ftp system send a message
stating that there is an "override disparity" regarding the priorities.
Also, he has tried to contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] many times for 6 months
but failed to receive any answer so far.

What can be done, regarding this package, and also every other packages
which could be in this situation?


Wolfgang
