We have no particularly convenient mechanism to declare a bug RC except for raising it to a release-critical severity (and, honestly, what's the point of the release-critical severities otherwise)? We can block packages from testing, but it's awkward to do that routinely for single bugs, and I wouldn't want to encourage that situation. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
